Stone. The judges praised Klein's "groundbreaking book" titled, “This Changes EverythingCapitalism vs. the Climate,” and Sirota's exposes on corruption in the pension system. Jeff Cohen, director of the Park Center for Independent Media, said in a statement"Naomi Klein and David Sirota are the journalistic heirs of I.F. Stone, taking on the most powerful forces in society from Wall Street to Big Oil & Gas and giving voice to the victims of predatory capitalism."
