Fear And Loathing In Colorado
February 21, 2005

Hunter S Thompson has been found dead at his home in Colorado.

Best known for his 1972 account of a drug-addled trip to Nevada, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Thompson pioneered "gonzo journalism", a factual style in which the writer was an essential part of the story...

Reports say he shot himself.

Fear And Loathing was illustrated by Ralph Steadman

It was 1971 you fucking idiot.

I admit the events took place in 1971 and indeed appeared in Rolling Stone magazine in November of that year, but, you eloquent, anonymous twat, the book was published in 1972.
