What is the theme in Fear and Loathing: On the Campaign Trail '72 by Hunter S. Thompson?

Rock-n-roll Journalism is the main theme of the book. The author wrote this book while working for Rolling Stone magazine. Rolling Stone is one of the most prominent and well respected magazines of its kind. Rolling Stone focuses on rock-n-roll. This music genre proclaims itself to have a unique ethos. There have been few popular studies to determine whether or not this is true. As such, there is a natural self-importance that goes along with rock-n-roll music: the fans really. The audience for this magazine is often but not always young. Entertainment and self-centered decision-making prevail among the readership. J
