Alexander Cockburn byl americký politický novinář, který se proslavil svým pronikavým a často nekompromisním pohledem na současné dění.

Cockburn se nebál zpochybňovat dominantní narativy a nabízet alternativní perspektivy, čímž si získal pověst neohroženého intelektuála. Jeho dílo dodnes inspiruje čtenáře hledající kritické zhodnocení politické reality.
