I. F. Stone (Isidor Feinstein Stone, 24 Desember 1907 – 18 Juni 1989) adalah seorang jurnalis investigatif dan penulis yang dikenal sebagai seorang pria berintegritas yang menjadi inspirasi bagi para penulis lainnya dan seorang intelektual dari sayap kanan Amerika.[1][2]
Ia paling dikenal karena newsletter, I. F. Stone's Weekly (1953–71), yang meraih peringkat ke-16 dari "100 Karya Jurnalisme Papan Atas di Amerika Serikat pada Abad ke-20", dan meraih peringkat kedua dalam hal publikasi jurnalisme cetak.[3]
[He] published his first newspaper as a New Jersey schoolboy of 14 and proceeded to afflict the comfortable and comfort the afflicted for the rest of his life. He worked for seven newspapers, was Washington, D.C. correspondent for The Nation and wrote 13 books. Although his politics were well to the left of center, Stone was best known for a conservative-looking four-page paper, I. F. Stone's Weekly, which he published with his wife, Esther, for 18 years.
I. F. Stone, the independent, radical pamphleteer of American journalism hailed by admirers for scholarship, wit and lucidity and denounced by critics for wrongheadedness and stubbornness, died of a heart attack yesterday in a Boston hospital. He was 81 years old and lived for many years in Washington.
