Preferred term

political reporters  

Definition

  • American political reporters strive to keep politicians honest, to serve as proxies for the public, and to inform citizens so that they can make better political choices. Many political reporters think of themselves as an independent and vital “Fourth Estate,” which operates as a check on political power. [Source: Encyclopedia of Journalism; Political Reporters]
