They exposed the problems to the public by writing about it to get there support to change policies and pass laws and such.
Ummmm... lets try 'to get THEIR support' there means a place like go over there. Their shows ownership like it was their pencil.
The muckrakers changed public policy with their investigative reporting style. This style helped them expose political corruption and public issues like job conditions and poverty to the masses via popular magazines.
Muckraking fueled reform campaigns. Muckrakers exposed urban political corruption and corporate wrongdoing, urban poverty, and the plight of industrial workers. People liked reading the "exposure journalism" and wanted to act.
They changed the government and society because they were able to rule over them. And the government really didnt care about the muckrakers because there were no law to keep the place clean. :)
Muckraking influenced American society during the Progressive Era in many different ways. They wrote articles and constant complaining how some people in the society did some bad things. one of the example is the meat packaging that Upton Sinclair published to the society. That the place they used to do the meat packaging it was not clean at all and sometimes you wold find some dead rat on them and more like that.
