The United States and a number of other countries have three separate official branches of government, the legislative, the executive, and the judicial. Each branch takes care of certain legal functions as well as providing a check on the other two. Sometimes the Press is called the fourth branch of government. It has no official governmental function but it frequently ferrets out corruption within the government which the other branches ignored but should not have. So it does the same work as a branch of government.
