This paper will deal with the investigation from three perspectives. By using the papers of the theorists of postmodernism it has been shown that both the investigative discourse and the investigative lexis are the set of instruments for the production of truth that satisfies the dominant strain. Through the analysis of the investigation process it will be discovered that manipulation is used as a means of constructing the truth and furthermore, the ways of constructing reality in the discourse of the mass media will also be shown.
