And what are you going to do about that
It so happens that i recently bought my own newspaer just for this type of situation
Jacob Riis saved up money bought his own newspaper and started to investigate
Did you know that I bought and managed my own newspaper that outlined corruption happening in NYC
I was also one of the first users of flash photography
Jacob Riis was one of the first journalists to use flash photography
Did you know because of my actions in investigative journalism I was one of the first original muckrakers.
Jacob Riis was one of the first examples of Muckraking in the United States
As a result of Jacob Riis and his work more reforms were made and corruption was more openly oppressed
My newspaper was the reason most people knew ho the otther half lived in NYC
