"I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me.".....Hunter S. Thompson (July 18, 1937 – February 20, 2005), an American journalist, anarchist and author of the book called Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. He is the father of gonzo journalism, a method of reporting that blurs the differences between author and subject, nonfiction and fiction,which is the opposite of the objectivist style practiced by mainstream media of his time. He always wrote in the first person. He died from a self-imposed gunshot wound to the head. He was 67 years old.
