What I mean is, how/why can he sue a British company? Surely American laws don't apply to British companies, otherwise they should comply with the laws of every other country or risk getting sued? We don't expect the BBC to follow russian laws right? Is there some special agreement?
And conversely, how/why can he sue in British court if he is not a British subject?
So, to go back to the question above, would he be suing the American branch of the BBC which is the US-operating segment (and I suspect doesn't have billions of dollars) or trying to sue the BBC which doesn't operate in America (leaving that to the US branch)?
Or would be be suing, for instance, whatever broadcast service performed the BBC broadcast in the States? (It doesn't sound like this)

How does this work? Is he suing the American "branch" or in British court?
