Hunter S. Thompson RIP

 

One of the very few real journalists is no longer with us. A journalist who always seemed to be on the verge of a terminal mental episode, or bad craziness as he'd say, and who changed journalism forever due to his approach toward the pursuit of universal truth, Hunter S. Thompson, or Dr. Gonzo as I am usually inclined to call him when discussing his works, shot his brains out last sunday in his home in Colorado. Farewell Dr. You will be missed.
