WHAT IS GONZO NEWS? LET ME TELL YOU...

in #introduceyourself8 years ago (edited)


Gonzo is on Steem!!! I 'm David Gonzalez and I'm ready to take blogging to another level with all of you. I'm a Canadian-Mexican who will soon be teaching in Shanghai, China. I hold a B.A. in Political Science from Brock University and I studied my Masters at Niagara University in New York. I commentate mostly on politics, but I like to throw in some history, religion, and philosophy. I want to add in my travels through China, Asia, and the rest of the world on here. I like to consider myself a well rounded Joe Roganite - Jack of all trades commentator expressed through 'Gonzo Journalism.'

"Gonzo journalism is a style of journalism that is written without claims of objectivity, often including the reporter as part of the story via a first-person narrative. The word "gonzo" is believed to have been first used in 1970 to describe an article by Hunter S. Thompson

I look forward to helping this community improve and grow!

Steem it with love ya'll,

David "Gonzo" Gonzalez
, who later popularized the style. It is an energetic first-person participatory writing style in which the author is a protagonist, and it draws its power from a combination of social critique and self-satire.It has since been applied to other subjective artistic endeavors."  (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gonzo_journalism)
