The BBC's John Sweeney has quit after seventeen years at the Corporation.
Sweeney regularly reported on current affairs programmes including Panorama and Newsnight.
His final Panorama assignment, which sought to discredit right-wing activist Tommy Robinson, spectacularly backfired when he unwittingly interviewed an ally of Robinson's.
Sweeney was caught on camera boasting about quaffing wine on BBC expenses and suggesting that he would use underhand tactics to get the critical angle on Robinson he wanted.
In response Robinson broadcast undercover footage of Sweeney's interview and created his own documentary exposing bias at the BBC.
The makers of the BBC's Panorama programme issued an apology.
"Some of the footage which has been released was recorded without our knowledge during this investigation and John Sweeney made some offensive and inappropriate remarks, for which he apologises," a spokesperson said earlier this year.
In the storm that followed, the Panorama programme was never broadcast and Sweeney never appeared on screen again.
In a parting act of defiance Sweeney tweeted that Robinson was "a c**t" and that he'd "paid for all the drinks" to celebrate his departure.
In an email to staff, the BBC's head of current affairs Joanna Carr praised his "courageous and award-winning journalism", adding: "John's investigations have made a significant contribution to BBC journalism and we wish him all the best for the future."

Another staged Freemason event. Full of numerology codes, No. 7s and 3s. The BBC are biased but my research on Robinson has shown him to be an Israeli agent. He is always causing drama and causing racial divide with Muslims in the UK. This is to keep everyone fighting so we do not wake up to what they are really doing and that is continuing divide and conquer. It is claimed that he went to prison but that is not true. This is to promote fear because fear blocks the subconscious from working properly. Tommy Robinson is not his real name. He was born Stephen Christopher Yaxley Lennon, and also goes by Andrew McMaster and Paul Harris and he is also a transgender. See Hyperbit Storm's video on her on Bitchute. No man looks like that. She has a female body structure, small head and tiny mouth and tiny hands. We are being conned. Trannies/Eunuchs have been used by the sodomite elite for centuries and Robinson assists in causing mayhem and chaos and blocks the public from getting the truth because the main stream media is Freemason controlled and they lie to the public 24/7. All Tommy Robinson's fights are staged and crisis actor trannies are used for these staged events. Tommy Robinson is a fake character who does not tell the truth about her gender and cannot be trusted. Robinson is a sellout whore with no morals.
Obviously got away from your carer,you need to return to your ward and start taking your meds again, before the aliens from the planet Zog land and take you away for more anal probing.
Sweeney is a dog. He always was and always will be. His 'significant contribution' has been based on underhanded methods and Goebels-like editing. Good riddance to a cheesy parasite. Oh by the way, there are many thousands of people who think Sweeney is an even bigger c**t.
