Nellie Bly was able to disclose what really transpired in a mental institution by actually becoming a patient and suffering the cruel treatment. What courage and determination she must have had in order to investigate and publish what she experienced and what was hidden behind closed doors. I heard of Nellie from my Grandmother who lived during Nellie's lifetime and she had great admiration of Ms. Bly. Thank you Tara.

We need Nellie Blys today. Moreover we need news organizations who will stand for truth and actually be the defenders of freedom they claim to be. She and her News organization were courageous.

Nellie Bly literally risked life and limb to improve the lives of those who could not fend for themselves in a corrupt and cruel system. Brava, Tara!
