On the media market, more and more platforms specialized in publishing journalistic investigations are being configured. The investigative journalist’s possibilities have expanded to such an extent that currently a good professional can carry out journalistic investigations without going out into the field and without conducting interviews with information sources. At the same time, new technologies have also enormously influenced the structural aspect of journalistic investigations, because online platforms also allow the publication of rather voluminous materials, accompanied by many photos, graphics, diagrams and even video and audio content. The journalist also applies numerous innovative tools such as: geotagging, real-time geolocation, hashtags, accounts of individuals on social networks, access to free and paid databases. In the Republic of Moldova, the interest in the field of investigative journalism is fuelled by several essential aspects; the increased level of corruption in all social fields; the intensification of anti-corruption policies, with the aim of aligning the Republic of Moldova with European policies; increasing the level of liberalization and independence of the media in setting their agenda independently; new technologies have significantly simplified the work of investigative journalists.
