Our Story
Go Gonzo Journal was established in 2010 as a publisher of “fake news with a spin of truth.” It is a journal that’s Gonzo in nature. Our stories are written in the Gonzo style that has its roots in the Beat Generation, with writers like Jack Kerouac, William S. Burroughs, and Allen Ginsberg influencing the man responsible for popularizing the Gonzo journalism movement – Dr. Hunter S. Thompson. As you can see, we do our best to honor the Gonzo style through our devotion and love for the 1st Amendment. The one thing from the Gonzo generation we try to revitalize in all our stories is the influence of the writer as the hero of the story. This first person account creates an intimate relationship between reader and writer and allows the writer to exaggerate or eliminate the facts as needed.
We cover all of your favorite top stories but from a fictitious angle. We’ll cover the most important news stories, but from an angle no one would consider. We’ll cover sports, but from the perspective of a fan and not a journalist.
Go Gonzo Journal is also an excellent source for book, music, movie, and television reviews, political commentary, travel articles offering great ideas for vacations, and business articles dedicated to helping you properly evaluate and navigate the evolving Black Market. Also, the Go Gonzo Journal Store offers outrageous T-shirts and other Gonzo products to help fund this fiasco and hopefully increase interest in our little revolution.
We don’t write news. We write about the news. Don’t confuse this news source, or any news source, with truth. As far as we’re concerned, truth does not exist. Everything is subjective, and your truth is much different than ours. We have no intention of providing truth --
only perspective and entertainment.
