One Rogue Reporter is a 2014 satirical documentary directed by Rich Peppiatt and Tom Jenkinson and starring Hugh Grant, Steve Coogan and Owen Jones, among others.

The film follows the real-life story of Peppiatt as he quits his job as a tabloid newspaper reporter over ethical concerns, leaking his caustic resignation letter to The Guardian.

The film premiered at the Sheffield Doc/Fest in 2014.The documentary evolved from a stand-up comedy show, also called One Rogue Reporter, that Peppiatt performed at the 2012 Edinburgh Festival Fringe which he then toured the UK.
