He was so awesome that after he died his best friend and pretty much everyone he ever knew got together and wrote a book about how his persona was complete bullshit and he was actually a weepy coward and people need to quit holding him up as some paragon of masculinity and journalistic integrity

His claim to fame was getting pretty drunk with some band he interviewed and not finishing his article for rolling stone, and faxing his editor random notes he'd made that weekend. The editor published everything he'd sent because it sounded like some wacky stream of consciousness account of a drunk guy hanging out with a band and it was a big hit.

Then he had to come up with more wacky stream of consciousness again and again and was terrified of being found out as a fraud

MEMO FROM THE NATIONAL AFFAIRS DESK

DATE: MAY 1, 1994
FROM: DR. HUNTER S. THOMPSON
SUBJECT: THE DEATH OF RICHARD NIXON: NOTES ON THE PASSING OF AN AMERICAN MONSTER.... HE WAS A LIAR AND A QUITTER, AND HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN BURIED AT SEA.... BUT HE WAS, AFTER ALL, THE PRESIDENT.

HST posted:

If the right people had been in charge of Nixon's funeral, his casket would have been launched into one of those open-sewage canals that empty into the ocean just south of Los Angeles. He was a swine of a man and a jabbering dupe of a president. Nixon was so crooked that he needed servants to help him screw his pants on every morning. Even his funeral was illegal. He was queer in the deepest way. His body should have been burned in a trash bin.
...
Some people will say that words like scum and rotten are wrong for Objective Journalism -- which is true, but they miss the point. It was the built-in blind spots of the Objective rules and dogma that allowed Nixon to slither into the White House in the first place. He looked so good on paper that you could almost vote for him sight unseen. He seemed so all-American, so much like Horatio Alger, that he was able to slip through the cracks of Objective Journalism. You had to get Subjective to see Nixon clearly, and the shock of recognition was often painful.
