The Aspen Daily News Gonzo Edition, dedicated to the late Hunter S. Thompson, is now available online.
- Hunter’s wife Anita is the guest editor.
- Curtis Robinson recalls Hunter’s words on objective journalism:
“So much for Objective Journalism. Don’t bother to look for it here — not under my byline or anyone else I can think of. With the possible exception of things like box scores, race results, and stock market tabulations, there is no such thing as Objective Journalism. The phrase itself is a pompous contradiction in terms.”
