William Thomas Stead

    William Thomas Stead était un rédacteur en chef anglais, pionnier du journalisme d'investigation qui est devenu une figure controversée de l'époque victorienne. Les campagnes influentes de Stead, publiées dans The Pall Mall Gazette, ont considérablement façonné l'opinion publique et la politique gouvernementale. Il prônait le 'gouvernement par le journalisme' et était connu pour ses reportages sur la protection de l'enfance et la législation sociale. Son approche du 'nouveau journalisme', visant à influencer le sentiment public, a ouvert la voie aux médias tabloïds modernes en Grande-Bretagne.

Stead.
