Raoul Duke 1939 - 2005

"So much for Objective Journalism. Don’t bother to look for it here - not under any byline of mine; 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."

- Hunter S. Thompson, from "Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72", who Sunday died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
