    The "Most Accurate Least Factual" Writer : Hunter S. Thompson Journalist

    No full text
    New Journalism as practiced by Tom Wolfe Jimmy Breslin and other writers loosened the accepted bounds of journalism in the 1960s. Embracing these unrestricted journalism practices Hunter S. Thompson adapted the New Journalists' techniques and added some of his own to create Gonzo Journalism. A mix of satire dark humor and parody Gonzo focused on the persona telling the story rather than the events that the writer on which was supposed to be reporting. Objectivity the mainstay of traditional reporting in the 20th century was not the goal in Gonzo. Thompson's writing more closely resembled the news writing that came before the rise of objectivity. Today Thompson's influence on the modern media has lead the way for satirical news programming such as The Colbert Report and publications like The Onion. Thompson's writing was also the also a forbearer of the modern polarized media. People who read his reportage understood that they were getting a story from his point-of-view; similarly shows like Fox News provide the news from a certain viewpoint.

    Anesthetic management of a child with Hunter′s syndrome

    No full text
    Hunter′s syndrome is a member of a group of recessively inherited metabolic disorders termed mucopolysaccharidoses, caused by deficiency of lysosomal enzymes required for degradation of mucopolysaccharides or glycosaminoglycans, leading to accumulation of partially degraded glycosaminoglycans in various tissues. This leads to various anatomical abnormalities and systemic involvement, posing a challenge to an anesthetist. We present the anesthetic management of a 4-year old child with Hunter′s disease with anticipated difficult airway, who presented for adenotonsillectomy and repair of umbilical and inguinal hernia

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
