WHAT'S NEXT: INNOVATIONS IN NEWSPAPERS

I hate this expression.

Why?

Because there is NO reporting WITHOUT investigation.

Reporting is the core of journalism.

And there is no journalism without investigation.

When you read the answers from Matthew Purdy, the New York Times Investigations Editor, you will realize that what his team does is just journalism with reporters that have more time do their job.

Time is the difference.

Not reporting or journalism.

If you want to have “investigative journalists,” just give them more time to report.

Time is the name of the game.

Time might not be enough, but it is necessary for good reporting and good journalism.
