Whitelaw Reid (October 27, 1837 – December 15, 1912) was an American politician and newspaper editor, as well as the author of Ohio in the War, a popular work of history. After assisting Horace Greeley as editor of the New-York Tribune, Reid purchased the paper after Greeley's death in late 1872 and controlled it until his own death. The circulation grew to about 60,000 a day, but the weekly edition became less important. He invested heavily in new technology, such as the Hoe rotary printing press and the linotype machine, but bitterly fought against the unionized workers for control of his shop.

As a famous voice of the Republican Party, he was honored with appointments as ambassador to France and Great Britain, as well as numerous other honorific positions. Reid was the party's nominee for Vice President of the United States in the 1892 election. In 1898, President William McKinley appointed him to the American commission that negotiated peace with Spain after the Spanish–American War. (en)

Redattore della New York Tribune di Horace Greeley dal 1868, ne assunse la direzione nel 1872.

Nel 1889 Reid divenne ministro plenipotenziario in Francia, carica che mantenne fino al 1892. Nel 1897 fu inviato al giubileo di diamante della regina Vittoria del Regno Unito in rappresentanza degli USA e dal 1905 al 1912 svolse il ruolo di ambasciatore statunitense a Londra. (it)

  • Whitelaw Reid, född 27 oktober 1837 i Cedarville, Ohio, död 15 december 1912 i London, England, var en amerikansk politiker, diplomat och publicist. Han var chef för USA:s diplomatiska beskickning i Frankrike 1889-1892. Han var sedan republikanernas vicepresidentkandidat i presidentvalet i USA 1892. Han tjänstgjorde som USA:s ambassadör i London från 1905 fram till sin död. Reid utexaminerades 1856 från Miami University i Oxford, Ohio. Han var länge ansvarig utgivare för New York Tribune. Han efterträdde 1889 Robert Milligan McLane som USA:s minister (Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary) i Paris. USA:s beskickningschef i Paris fick ambassadörs rang först 1893, året efter Reids återkomst till USA. Thomas C. Platt, en mäktig politisk boss från delstaten New York, var emot nomineringen av Levi P. Morton till återval som USA:s vicepresident. Platt och de andra bossarna fick sin vilja igenom efter att Whitelaw Reid, även han bosatt i delstaten New York, hade föreslagits som kandidat. President Benjamin Harrison, som nominerades till omval, protesterade inte mot förslaget att nominera Reid och nomineringen gick igenom enhälligt. Platt och hans anhängare var övertygade om Harrisons förlust och de hade planer på att nominera Morton till guvernörskandidat i New York två år senare. Att vara med om ett förlorat val skulle i deras ögon ha varit Morton till skada. Harrison och Reid förlorade valet mot demokraterna Grover Cleveland och Adlai E. Stevenson. Reid efterträdde 1905 som USA:s ambassadör i London. Han avled 1912 i ämbetet. Han gravsattes på Sleepy Hollow Cemetery i Sleepy Hollow, New York. (sv)
