The BBC announced that it hasn’t found any proof that its journalists hacked phones or e-mails or bribed sources, the Guardian reported.

The BBC started an internal review in July and revealed the results in late October, according to the Guardian.  The BBC did find that the broadcaster used private investigators sometimes for finding sources.

The results were reported in the October BBC Trust meeting. See the mintues here.
