In this masterclass video, Will Fitzgibbon, senior reporter and global partnership coordinator at The Examination, shares his approach to investigating “corporations that make people sick.” From reading scientific research as a source of story leads to commissioning original blood and soil testing, Fitzgibbon explains how combining scientific data with traditional investigative methods creates evidence that is hard for companies and governments to dismiss. The video will help understand why partnering with scientists and experts is a powerful tool for journalists, why linking pollution to concrete health consequences raises the stakes of a story, and why the fundamentals of investigative journalism (sources, whistleblowers, leaked documents) remain essential even when science enters the mix.
