Hunter S. Thompson in Disinformation’s Revolutionaries section. I don’t know if he is/was revolutionary, but I did argue once, in a formal academic paper, that his Fear and Loathing: On the Campaign Trail ’72 featured the best, most accurate analysis of the political communication during that Presidential election. I got an A. I’ve loved HST ever since.
John Perry Barlow
writes about Napster and copyright on a site called Technocrat. Very often I run screaming from the room in frustration over Barlow’s opinions on things, although I’m sure he’s a pleasant fellow. This isn’t one of those times – I largely agree with his analysis.
