About this title

From the Publisher:

"So much for Objective Journalism. Don't bother to look for it here--not under any byline of mine; or anyone else that I can think of. ... The phrase itself is a pompous contradiction in terms." --Hunter S. Thompson, Fear and Loathing: On the Campaign Trail '72. On Feb. 21, 2005 Hunter S. Thompson, constable of counterculture, founder of Gonzo journalism, died. In The Gonzo Way, Anita Thompson, Hunter's widow and assistant, reflects upon his legacy and the effect of his departure on the Gonzo journalism movement.

About the Author:
