Hunter S Thompson
The man, the myth, the gonzo legend; here is the first excerpt:
“On Xmas eve we are going to burn a dog with napalm (or jellied gasoline made to the formula of napalm) on a street where many people will see it. If possible, we will burn several dogs, depending on how many we find on that day. ... We think this will make the point, once people see what napalm does. It hurts humans much worse than it hurts dogs. And if anybody doubts this, they can volunteer to take the place of whatever dogs we have. Anybody who wants to try it should be standing in front of the Mountain Shop about four o’clock on Xmas eve, and he should be wearing a sign that says ‘Napalm Dog'
See, that's what a proper journalist/writer does. He writes. Using interesting ideas and words to get an idea across.
