This week's word in the news: MUCKRAKER

DEFINITION:
A person who searches for and tries to expose real or alleged corruption, scandal, or other wrongdoing, especially in politics.

FOUND IN THE NEWS:
While the political action committee – American muckrakers – spread a video in which Cawthorn was identifiable, its claims against Boebert, of Silt, are much more tenuous.
