WHO/WHOM

It is Sentence 2 which illustrates the correct formal usage.

The informal equivalent is:

He's the one I told the news to.

thanks Jim. I guess only you chose to be my mentor. Let me ask you one more qn..

Which one is correct formal usage ??

Who as an interrogative pronoun has three cases: who, whom and whose. They exclusively refer to people:

Hey, who ate my poptart?
I know not for whom this letter was sent.
Whose hundred-dollar-bill is this?

If the interrogative pronoun replaces the subject of the sentence, use the nominative case form:

Who started the bar fight? Who will clean up this mess?

1, 2, and 3 are correct, as you say.
"resist from"? -- No! You can't do that!

It's hard to refrain from smoking.

thank you all.. Your explanations helped.

No. 2 It is he whom I told the news.

This actually should be "It is he whom I told the news to," am I right?

Mephorium,

Sorry, you'll need a different example of "whom" as a relative pronoun!

I don't think that's a question! Did you want to know how to respond to such a statement? If so, you could say, "Yes, I do too. There are so many thieves about. Something ought to be done about it."
