Investigative journalism delves beneath the surface to uncover ugly truths about corruption and fraud, unsafe workplaces, abuse of power, sinister scams, and the abrogation of human rights. It can turn complicated investigations into compelling stories that have the power to change the status quo. Discuss how to develop and nurture sources, track down and decipher key documents, follow the money trail, and ask probing and hard-hitting questions. Explore how critical thinking, a healthy amount of skepticism, and the right strategy are key to a successful investigative story. 10-session Journalism elective
