Hunter S Thompson: ‘You are scum’



 Hand-scrawled missive from Hunter S. Thompson to William McKeen, the author of the first HST bio, Outlaw Journalist (1991). His assistant at the time told McKeen how to “translate” the sentiments:
That’s just his way of saying that he liked it.
The framed letter is now hanging in a place of pride in McKeen’s home.

  1. That is awesome. With a letter like that I would have been nervous as hell as long as that mean SOB was alive, but definitely framed it after he died.
