What do you think it means to be an INVESTIGATIVE journalist? What kinds of things do you think investigative journalist research? What news stories do they write? Why do people like investigative journalism so much?

Investigative journalism concerns itself with revealing, questioning, and analyzing a subject... rather than just reporting facts.

It is popular mainly because of its appeal to curiosity, suspense and the unique perspectives it reveals. Unlike basic bare-bones journalism, investigations look at details and suggest how those details play a role in the story. It reveals sophisticated conclusions which shape the way people think about a subject... sparks deep discussions about subjective "layers" of the story (morality, justification, long-term influence).

People love it for its sophistication... but also the fact that it's presented in a story-like manner that's easy to read... and fun to discuss.

explanation:

you only need simple sentences to answer this. just answer these questions.

what do you think annie thinks of the mother? do you think annie believes the mother is a fit mother for helen.

what about the father? what would annie think of him? she might not like him, but does she respect him.

how about the son? would annie think he is the only voice of sanity in an insane place?

what about helen herself? this is the key question. how does she see helen? what do you suppose she thought her first job was going to be.

these aren't hard questions. just state the obvious. annie is not that well educated: she just knows what she has to do. write it that way.

you can do it if you've read the book or seen the play or movie.

the correct answer is dilapidated.

hope this (:
