The text of Bureaucrat reads:

Gain a Silver card, put it on top of your deck. Each other player reveals a Victory card and puts it on top of his deck. (or reveals a hand with no Victory cards).

When I play the card and a player does not have any victory cards in their hand, it instructs you to reveal a hand with none. Should they only reveal their hand to me or are they required to reveal their hand to the entire group of players?

One core purpose of revealing is to allow everyone to be satisfied that cards are being applied correctly, or to be more blunt, make sure there's no cheating. If not everyone sees the cards, that goal isn't met. – Jefromi Feb 7 at 21:16

Reveal means to show their hand to the table.

From the rules, page 7.

Reveal – when a player reveals a card, he shows a card to all players and then returns it to wherever it came from (unless instructed specifically to put it elsewhere). If the player is required to reveal cards from the top of his Deck, and he does not have enough cards, he shuffles in order to reveal the required number of cards.
