The BBC censors a lecture by historian Rutger Bregman to avoid offending Donald Trump.

In one line, Bregman says Trump is the most openly corrupt president in US history. Because that is what Bregman's research shows.

But the BBC values Trump's feelings over facts, and has now cut this sentence from the lecture.

@randahl

Unfortunately the #bbc has form in these matters. Speakers too critical of #germany were kept off the air through much of the 1930s in the days of the sainted #johnreith .
