Peer reviewedGlasser, Theodore L.; Ettema, James S. – Critical Studies in Mass Communication, 1989
Examines how investigative journalists work within the unresolved tension between detached observation and active moral agency. Concludes that investigative journalism may oversee the reinforcement of dominant moral values, but may also preside over the definition and development, as well as the debasement and dissolution, of those values.
