This is a list of investigative journalists.
Only a small proportion of journalism consists of investigative journalism.
However, the few who practice it can have a disproportionately large effect when their work brings attention to matters people care about but are unaware of.
This is a partial list.
As of 2024[update], the Global Investigative Journalism Network currently has 249 members (most or all of which are networks or outlets serving multiple journalists),[1] and Investigative Reporters and Editors has over 4,500 members practicing in the US and around the world.
