1975: EXTRA!
Team Coverage:
Investigative Reporters and Editors was formed in 1975 to help journalists share reporting techniques. The following year, one of its founding members, Arizona Republic reporter Don Bolles, was murdered while reporting on organized crime. In the first and only attempt at collective reporting, IRE members spent five months continuing Bolles's investigation. The Arizona Project, as the investigation was called, produced an award-winning series that helped expose organized crime in Arizona. |
