Tim Davie expected to resign as BBC director general
Corporation has faced accusations of ‘serious and systemic’ bias in its reporting
Tim Davie, the BBC’s director general, is expected to resign after a former adviser to the corporation accused it of “serious and systemic” bias in its coverage of issues including Donald Trump, Gaza and trans rights.
In a shock move, the Guardian understands that Davie is to imminently announce his departure. It comes with the BBC preparing to apologise for the way the broadcaster edited a Donald Trump speech.
