Abstract
How far can an accident take you – a small story that, in search of the truth, turns into a big one? How does criminal business use the best marketing and communication techniques? How a small project turns big, international one and how you can manage it in the name of public interest.
What could you learn from a dangerous investigation in the heart of Africa – from credit card fraud, through illegal gambling and the Interpol bulletin, to dirty money funding of the English Premier League? All of this you cannot learn at the university.
