الصحافة الاستقصائية والقيم الاجتماعية: قراءة متعددة الأبعاد لمفهوم الفضيحة في وسائل الإعلام

Abstract EN

In this study, we will present some insights on a commonly used concept in the investigative journalism literature, which is “scandal”, a concept which, in our opinion, has not received its attention in the Arab research community.

what we will do in this paper is to provide a theoretical conception of this concept, while attempting to reveal its deep links to the investigative journalism as one of its main objectives.

one of the important aims of our study is to emphasize the relative roles of investigative journalism in the detection of scandals within certain contexts of the political game and the possibility of being dragged behind the obsession to turn to another form of journalism, which is tabloid press.
