What is Gonzo journalism?
In: 427
Journalism from the journalists point of view. The author is also the protagonist and experiences what they are reporting on.
Some of examples are from VICE, where they would go and do some of the weirder things, like instead of “Some people injecting saline into their sexual organs for pleasure”, it’s “[Here is what it’s like to have this done.](https://www.vice.com/en/article/4wba33/this-is-a-story-about-getting-your-balls-inflated)”(no pictures, but NSFW text)
Other examples would be Hunter Thompson, who instead of just writing about the Hells Angels, joined them for a year.
