I know it can difficult for a journalist to share the truth about a situation as it can lead them to feeling vulnerable and at times, in fear of their safety.
For example, I don't know if you have watched the documentary on a journalist called Veronica Gearon who exposed some gangland crimes that were ongoing in Ireland,she continued to write articles about the crimes that were commited despite recieving death threaths. Sadly, her passion for speaking out led to her death.
Revealing the truth can have its consequences but it always the moral thing to do and people like Veronica will be loved and admired by everyone.
