The Benazir murder case: a literary survey of the investigative news and research report (from years 2007 to 2008).

Abstract

Investigative reporting is believed to be the backbone of journalism. It brings the truth in focus, laying behind the story; therefore, investigative reporting holds great importance among the masses. This job is done by the investigative reporter. Journalists of the Washington Post Mr. Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein wrote the true story about "Water Gate Scandal" and president Richard Nixon's forced resignation. Positive changes can be brought into society through such reporting. Therefore, the chain of inquisitive tragedies such as the murder of Liaquat Ali Khan, the military attack on Egypt from Israel, Pakistani support to Israel and UK, defense agreement with the USA 1965 war with India, the war of 1971 and separation of East Pakistan, and many others took place in the history but the people of Pakistan never got to know the truth except for rumors and fake news.
