H.S.Thompson [*]

 
Hi!. Today,  20th February is 6th anniversary of Hunter S. Thompson death.  He is credited as the creator of Gonzo journalism, a style of reporting where reporters involve themselves in the action to such a degree that they become central figures of their stories. He bacome an icon of  60's. Most of u may know him from film adaptation of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. What to say more about that crazy journalist? I think he is my favourite reporter [*]

    Fear and Loathing was one messed up movie. But also quite awesome.
