Robert Stephen Rintoul (1787 – 22 April 1858), British journalist, was born at Tibbermore, Perthshire, in 1787, and educated at the Aberdalgie parish school. After serving his apprenticeship to the printing trade he became the printer and subsequently the editor of the ''Dundee Advertiser''. In 1826 he went to London where he was editor of The Atlas before, in July 1828 with the assistance of friends, founding ''The Spectator''.〔http://www.spectator.co.uk/party/687041/from-wellington-to-thatcher.thtml〕 In this publication Rintoul strongly supported the Reform Bill, and to him was due the catchphrase "The bill, the whole bill, and nothing but the bill". After publishing and managing the affairs of the ''The Spectator'' for more than thirty years, he sold it shortly before his death. ==References== 〔 * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Robert Stephen Rintoul」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
