William Thomas Stead bol anglický novinový redaktor, ktorý sa ako priekopník investigatívnej žurnalistiky stal kontroverznou postavou viktoriánskej éry. Svojím „novým novinárstvom“ dláždil cestu modernému bulváru vo Veľkej Británii a bol známy svojím spravodajstvom o starostlivosti o deti, sociálnej legislatíve a reforme anglických trestných zákonníkov. Stead preukázal, ako možno tlač využiť na ovplyvňovanie verejnej mienky a vládnej politiky, a obhajoval „vládu prostredníctvom žurnalistiky“. Jeho práca inšpirovala mnohých k preskúmaniu mocenských vzťahov medzi tlačou a spoločnosťou.
