Exploring President Trump’s Twitter: A Documentary

President Donald Trump sure does love his social media platform. From his widely controversial name-calling, such as coining Kim Jong Un “Rocket Man,” to his spelling mistakes, like the covfefe incident, Twitter has become a major part of Trump’s presidency.

In association with Wonderhood Studios, BBC will analyze President Trump’s social media habits in a special one-hour documentary, tentatively called “Trump In Tweets.” Revealed via Deadline, the forthcoming documentary will not only utilize some of the President’s own Tweets but will diagnose the ways in which he has used the social media platform to bolster his own image as well as literally impact the world on a variety of levels.

Given the amount of controversy surrounding Trump’s use of social media (there’s even a random Trump Tweet generator), the documentary will build off this very climate. In the midst of still ongoing impeachment hearings and a 3-day visit to the U.K. for the 70th anniversary of the defense alliance, “Trump In Tweets” highlights the state of modern politics, specifically the ways in which media itself is now influential in spheres of power.

The broadcast will air on BBC Three in the U.K. and will even feature some of the various people positioned around POTUS. This will include interviews and discussions with a multitude of individuals, such as journalists, media experts, avid Trump Twitter followers, and politicians.

BBC isn’t new to Trump’s social media adoration, as a podcast called “Trump Tweet by Tweet” was released a few months before the president was elected into office. "Trump In Tweets," which was commissioned by BBC Three and Commissioning Editor Fiona Campbell and Specialist Factual Jack Bootle, will also include executive producers Emeka Onono and Katharine Patrick.
