Thomas Adam Babington Boulton (born 15 February 1959) is a British journalist and broadcaster who is a regular presenter on Times Radio.

He then studied at Christ Church, Oxford, and Johns Hopkins University, where he gained degrees in English and international relations.

Boulton won the Royal Television Society's supreme Judge's Award and was elected the 2007 chairman of the parliamentary lobby.

On 15 June 2008 he became the first British television reporter to conduct a joint interview of US President George W. Bush and his wife Laura.

Boulton was based in Washington, D.C. from January 2009, covering the first 100 days of Barack Obama's presidency for Sky News.

On 10 May 2010, while covering events on the aftermath of the general election, Boulton lost his composure with former 10 Downing Street Director of Communications Alastair Campbell, defending his impartiality in a live on-air interview after Campbell accused Boulton of political bias in favour of the Conservatives.

[11] At the time both Labour and the Conservatives were trying to broker a deal with the Liberal Democrats aimed at forming a coalition government.

[13] During the campaign he had been asked to calm down by Peter Mandelson when he questioned him about possible spending cuts that the Financial Times believed would have to be made following the election.

[15] On 20 January 2011 Boulton once again interviewed Alastair Campbell on Sky News, ahead of Tony Blair's appearance in front of the Iraq Inquiry.

Boulton left the role of Sky News' political editor before the 2014 Scottish independence referendum[16] to become its Editor-at-large.

[19] In April 2022, Boulton has become a regular panellist on the TalkTV programme 'The News Desk with Tom Newton Dunn'.
