Exposé (journalism)

Encyclopedia : E : EX : EXP : Exposé (journalism)


An exposé is an exposure or revelation, often by way of an article or book, which provides shocking or surprising information. The end result of investigative journalism may often be an exposé where a reporter or author has delved into a subject and discovered controversy, scandal or misdeed. An example is Upton Sinclair's The Jungle, which exposed shocking disregard for hygenic practices in the meat-packing industry of the early 20th century.
