In many cases, the key is to combine digital expertise with traditional investigative techniques, argues Mr Mintz.
Some New Journalists freely admitted to using those techniques, arguing that they made their stories readable and publishable without sacrificing the essential truthfulness of the tale.
During the presidential campaign, the Republican nominee Donald Trump suggested that as president he would push to change laws that prohibit waterboarding and other harsh interrogation techniques, arguing that banning them put the US at a strategic disadvantage against Islamic State militants.
Others adamantly opposed the use of those techniques, arguing that any departure from facts, however minor, discredited a story and moved it away from journalism into the realm of fiction.
The absolute concordance that we observed using three techniques argues for a good reliability of the results.
Those who oppose the technique argue that there are inherent privacy concerns, and that it serves, in essence, as a form of racial profiling because a higher proportion of inmates are members of minorities.
The proponents of the technique argue that the failure of a fertilised egg to develop into a viable early embryo that can be transferred into the womb is often due to the decrepit nature of the egg's ageing mitochondria – which can be remedied by adding fresher ones from so-called egg-precursor cells in the ovary.
Researchers who choose to use this elicitation technique argue that it is free from external influences (Bezzi [1999]; Fransella et al. [2004]; Henze et al. [2007]; Jankowicz [2004]; Ben-Zvi Assaraf and Damri [2009]).
Critics of the forensic technique argue that its adoption would imperil individual privacy and facilitate racial profiling.
Angela Tang, a lawyer for Mr. Graham, also asked the woman repeatedly about her oral sex technique, arguing over objections from the prosecution that oral sex would indicate the "active participation" of the woman and therefore consent.
