‘It’s one or the other, bit*h’: Joe Rogan, Adam Carolla torch BBC for manipulating Trump speech

Daily Caller News Foundation

Comedians Joe Rogan and Adam Carolla denounced the BBC on “The Joe Rogan Experience” Friday for a “Panorama” documentary that stitched President Donald Trump’s Jan. 6, 2021, speech together in a way that suggested he promoted violence.

The BBC apologized to Trump for the edit on Thursday, but denied that it met the standard for defamation amid the president’s demand for damages. Rogan and Carolla argued on the podcast that the edit was inexcusable and showed BBC’s bias against Trump.

“They felt justified in editing something to make it look like he had a completely different sentence,” Rogan said.

“Well, the funny thing about it is whenever they confront the outgoing head who’s on the way out, they always go, ‘Yeah, we did this, but we’re not biased at all’ … it’s one or the other, bitch,” Carolla responded. “Yes, you are biased. And why did you do it? … By the way, you didn’t get the tape like this. You edited the tape like this. So that’s a calorie burner right there.”

BBC Director General Tim Davie and CEO of News Deborah Turness resigned on Sunday after the allegations of misleading viewers. Turness acknowledged that “mistakes have been made” in her statement, but she rejected claims of bias within BBC News

“It’s not a thing you could say you made a mistake when it’s literally 53, 54 minutes later he says the second part of the sentence,” Rogan said. “That’s crazy.”

“Yeah. So you’re biased and you’re cooking it,” Carolla added. “And that means we don’t need to listen to the BBC anymore.”

The Panorama sequence combined Trump’s lines “We’re going to walk down to the Capitol” and “We fight like hell,” which were delivered around 50 minutes apart. In reality, Trump said, “We’re going to walk down to the Capitol, and we’re going to cheer on our brave senators and congressmen and women.”
