Investigative Reporting

Investigative reporting is a journalistic practice that involves in-depth exploration and analysis of issues, events, or situations, often uncovering hidden or previously unknown information. This form of reporting seeks to reveal facts that may be concealed from the public, typically involving topics such as corruption, misconduct, fraud, or injustice. It requires extensive research, fact-checking, and often involves interviews with sources, document analysis, and sometimes undercover work. Investigative reporting aims to inform the public, hold power accountable, and foster transparency. It is characterized by its rigorous methodology and commitment to uncovering the truth, often leading to significant social or political impact.
