The continuing fall out from the Guardian Guide's 'Wiregate' scandal continues, as today editor Mike Blake also resigned.
He follows journalist Peter James, who was hounded out of his job last week following revelations made in a TV review that he "didn't really watch The Wire" and found all the fuss surrounding the hit US cop show "a little baffling".
Immediately, James and the entire publication was hit by a huge backlash from furious fans, angrily demanding his resignation, with the promising young writer's position soon becoming untenable when star columnist Charlie Brooker threatened to kill him - in print.
Now Blake has also quit, to help hopefully draw a line over what he called "the darkest week in this publication's history".
