As the story unfolds John Sweeney did not only once throw his journalistic principles overboard. A new video leaked today showing him at the London premiere of Wildhogs in March 2007. Sweeney is standing in a drove of fans ranting like a "deranged person" at actor John Travolta who had arrived to promote his newest movie. I really wonder how the BBC can keep this guy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0YM9rsQW_E

The BBC Panorama show is one of the oldest investigative shows in he world. They used to film undercover in hot spots and revealed shocking secrets in the political world. Since a while they seem to have left their traditional arena and go hunting after religious minorities. Just now a new insight on how they treat their interview partners has been brought to light. John Sweeney, "investigative" reporter and flagship of the BBC Panorama Program, was caught harassing and intimidating his interviewee, a Scientologist. The purpose and journalistic quality of this doing is not visible, but Mr. Sweeney's calculated effort to break the resistance of an interviewee with almost physical force: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxqR5NPhtLI Beware, UK Travelers! There are journalists on this island whom you don't want to meet in a dark alleyway. Moreover and specifically, Mr. Sweeney is trying to take the blame on himself later on, maybe to protect the sinking image of the BBC Panorama program. A more recent video found circulating today is presenting him as the BBC's Judas, calling his fellow employees simply "Morons": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VkOcK3rZHls
