Former News Of The World reporter Dan Evans has been given a 10-month suspended sentence after pleading guilty to phone hacking.
Evans - who was the star prosecution witness in the hacking trial of former NOTW editor and Downing Street media advisor Andy Coulson - also admitted conspiring to commit misconduct in a public office and perverting the course of justice.
His sentence was suspended for 12 months.
The 38-year-old told the court he had accessed the voicemails of a number of celebrities, including Daniel Craig and Kate Moss, while working for the Sunday Mirror and the NOTW.
Andy Coulson was sentenced to 18 months in jail He said Coulson was played a recording of a message from Sienna Miller to the James Bond actor suggesting they were having a relationship while she was dating Jude Law in 2005.
"Even the office cat" knew about hacking at the Sunday tabloid before it was shut down in 2011, Evans claimed.
Coulson was found guilty of hacking earlier this month and jailed for 18 months.
Mr Justice Saunders, who also ordered Evans to carry out 200 hours of unpaid work in the community, said he had taken into account Evans' guilty pleas.
The judge said he had also taken his agreement to give evidence in the hacking trial and possibly in the future into consideration.
Mr Justice Saunders said: "In the circumstances of this case, and in particular the co-operation that Mr Evans has given and has agreed to give the police and the prosecution in the future as compared with the lack of co-operation from others, I do feel able to suspend the sentence for a period of 12 months.
"I would not have done that had Mr Evans not made a clean breast of his involvement in these offences."
