+               <description>&lt;p&gt;I first got to know I.F. Stone when I came across an article by Jon
+Schwarz on The Intercept
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://theintercept.com/2015/05/07/new-documentary-legacy-f-stone/&quot;&gt;about
+his extraordinary contribution to investigative journalism in
+USA&lt;/a&gt;. The article is about a new documentary in two parts
+(&lt;a href=&quot;https://vimeo.com/123974841&quot;&gt;part one is 12 minutes&lt;/a&gt; and
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://vimeo.com/123974842&quot;&gt;part two is 30 minutes&lt;/a&gt;), and
+I found both truly fascinating.  It is amazing what he was able to
+find by digging up public sources and government papers.  He
+documented lots of government abuse and cover ups, and I find
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ifstone.org/weekly.php&quot;&gt;his weekly news letters&lt;/a&gt;
+inspiring to read even today.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;
+All governments are run by liars and nothing they say should be believed. 
+&lt;br&gt;- I. F. Stone
+&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;His starting point was that reporters should not assume governments
+and corporations are telling the truth, but verify all their claims as
+much as possible.  I wonder how many Norwegian reporters can be said
+to follow the principles of I. F. Stone.  They are definitely in short
+supply.  If you, like me half a year ago, have never heard of him,
+check him out.&lt;/p&gt;
