Gợi ý đáp án

Nellie Bly was an American journalist, best known for her investigative reporting. She also made the fastest trip around the world.

She was born in 1864 in Pennsylvania, the United States. Her parents named her Elizabeth Jane Cochran. She started her career in 1885 after writing an angry response to an article called What Girls Are Good For in the Pittsburgh Dispatch. They were impressed and gave her a job. In her first article, she argued that not all women needed to get married, and that they should have better opportunities. She then used the name Nellie Bly for the rest of her career.

After leaving the Pittsburgh Dispatch, Nellie was rejected from jobs because newspapers wouldn't hire a woman. She finally got a job at the New York World by agreeing to pretend to be mentally unwell to investigate a mental asylum. Her report exposed the asylum's conditions, and it was forced to improve its patient care, she wrote about many difficult issues, and most of them are in support of women's lives.

In 1889, inspired by Jules Verne's novel Around the World in Eighty Days, she took a trip around the world. The idea was rejected by her newspaper at first because "no one but a man can do this", but finally her editor agreed. She traveled alone for most of it, an unusual thing for women to do at the time. She actually met Jules Verne in France and completed the trip after 72 days, setting a world record.

In her later years, Nellie Bly returned to journalism. She wrote reports about World War I and problems that impacted women. Nellie Bly died in 1922 at the age of 57. Her life has inspired dozens of movies, TV series, and books.
