It's Nellie Bly, not bellies bly.

Muckrakers was (is) a term used to characterize reform-minded American journalists who attacked established institutions and leaders who they deemed corrupt. (Muck = slimy dirt or filth. Rake = to gather material)

Nellie Bly was a remarkable young woman who helped launch this new kind of investigative journalism.
