In honor of the late author and journalist, Hunter S. Thompson, HuntingForThompson.com’s goal is to be a platform for journalistic integrity, socio/political commentary, musings, general observations, and whatever else strikes our fancy; from politics to advertising, from social engineering to disenfranchisement, from this to that. We may lean Left, but without a Right now and then, we’d just be going around in circles. So we invite all to the platform so long as there is no attacking of authors; challenging their views is fine and welcomed.
The genesis for HuntingForThompson.com’s entrance on life’s stage came about as a result of the 2016 general election and from Donald J. Trump’s unfathomable rise to the Presidency of the United States of America. That unexpected and harsh reality brought about a catharsis, and the idle chatter of a vision for the play on a name “Hunting For Thompson” came to an end. The catharsis demanded that something more than, Oh my God, how could this have happened? be done.
So here we are: kicking and screaming, wailing at the top of our lungs: “The emperor has no clothes!”
