Another Trump defamation suit in the SDFLA

This one is against the BBC.  From the NY Times:

President Trump sued the BBC for $10 billion on Monday evening over the editing in a documentary that the British broadcaster said had left the “mistaken impression” that he called for violent action before the storming of the U.S. Capitol.

In a 46-page lawsuit filed in federal court in Miami, Mr. Trump accused the BBC of defaming him and violating Florida’s Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act. He demanded $5 billion for each offense.

In a statement, the president’s legal team said that the lawsuit was designed to hold the British network accountable for what it described as wrongdoing.
