BBC Scraps Interview With Boris Johnson After Laura Kuenssberg Mistakenly Shared Briefing Notes With Former UK Prime Minister
The BBC has canceled a planned interview with Boris Johnson after presenter Laura Kuenssberg accidentally sent the former UK prime minister her briefing notes.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Kuenssberg said the error was “embarrassing and disappointing” after she had intended to share the document with colleagues.
Boris Johnson: The Laura Kuenssberg Interview was due to broadcast on Thursday at 7.30pm, but will now be replaced in the BBC1 schedule.
“While prepping to interview Boris Johnson tomorrow, by mistake I sent our briefing notes to him in a message meant for my team. That obviously means it’s not right for the interview to go ahead,” Kuenssberg said.
“It’s very frustrating, and there’s no point pretending it’s anything other than embarrassing and disappointing, as there are plenty of important questions to be asked. But red faces aside, honesty is the best policy.”
