Spotlight

The 2015 movie, Spotlight, was based on a true story. "In 2002, the Boston Globe's Spotlight team, a group of five investigative journalists, uncovered the widespread sexual abuse of children by scores of the district's Clergy. They also revealed a cover-up: that priests accused of misconduct were being systematically removed and allowed to work in other parishes." This movie is a perfect example of journalism. It follows these journalists through their investigating and the troubles they have to go through when dealing with such controversial material. There have been many movies and documentaries that follow the similar situations but this is a prime example of investigative journalism.
