Jimmy Mulville, the producer of the BBC panel show Have I Got News For You, says Donald Trump's $10 billion lawsuit against the BBC is making the broadcaster nervous about what it airs regarding the U.S. president. Mulville, who founded the production company Hat Trick Productions, said the BBC fears Trump will accuse it of malice. He criticised the broadcaster for not being bolder, saying he wished the BBC would relax.
In a separate matter, David Ellison has spoken publicly for the first time about an antitrust lawsuit against him. In an op-ed, Ellison wrote that the case is not about market share but about CNN. He said that while he had stayed quiet, others were happy to write his story for him, and he would no longer remain silent.
