Features: As an ancient yet novel knowledge system, the study of journalism and communication has experienced rapid development in the past century. Although journalism and communication differ in their academic attributes, their significant correlation in knowledge growth remains evident, which is why they are often referred to as the same discipline globally. From an analysis of distinctive investigative journalism techniques to theoretical discussions on contemporary China's most exciting investigative reports—this book's author, with a dual identity as a journalist and scholar, spent five years completing it. It provides in-depth and cutting-edge exploration of the concepts, interview techniques, writing paradigms, and legal risk avoidance of investigative reporting, while fully elaborating on its immense value to public life and its crucial role in advancing national democratization.
