Gonzo (not Gonzi) Journalism
Hunter S. Thompson - the King of Gonzo Journalism. His major book - Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. A description: Destruction and decadence are only one tangent of the book; in between the fits of comic mayhem. Get it now Zemploid?
I was going to simply answer my old class-mate, brand-new blogger Zemploid, in his blog.
But I thought that Malta in 2005 is a gonzo journalist's paradise so why not blog about it. It's all falling apart innit? Liberal elite freedom fighters engaged in pitched battles with the loony right wing majority, foreign influences threatening the moral backbone of the country, Russian and black prostitutes sapping the remaining life-blood of Catholic Malta like vampires, Socialist die-hards in bed with Norman Lowell, Portes des Bombes defaced again. A return to populism.
