Investigative journalism, Monitor style
Mark Sappenfield
Investigative journalism is one of the media鈥檚 most powerful tools. The Monitor has done its share. But we also offer a twist.
Read today鈥檚 story by Dina Kraft about Israeli Jews and Palestinians coming together to fight for one another鈥檚 humanity and safety. Ask yourself: Have I seen anything like that anywhere else? Other聽news outlets often ignore such stories or cordon them off as 鈥済ood news.鈥�
We know they are much more. They are the seeds of a different future, and they could not be more important. We might have to dig a bit to find them. But that鈥檚 a different 鈥� and equally important 鈥� kind of investigative journalism.
