The US broadcasting regulator has launched an independent investigation into the BBC.
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairman Brendan Carr sent a letter to outgoing Director General Tim Davie.
Mr Carr included PBS and NPR in the letter as the two outlets distribute BBC programming in the United States.
In a letter seen by Breitbart, the Chairman said: “The BBC program depicts President Trump voicing a sentence that, in fact, he never uttered.
“That would appear to meet the very definition of publishing a materially false and damaging statement.”
While Ofcom is looking into the broadcaster, Mr Carr said he is independently investigating whether the BBC has engaged in “misleading and deceptive conduct.”
