"Which is true," he adds. "I started the rumor."



Saw Gonzo tonight. I think my favorite part of the film was how Hunter helped sink the Muskie campaign with a report (fictitious, it was found, after the damage had been done) that the Maine senator got regular drug fixes from a shady Brazilian doctor. He only wrote Muskie was rumored to be hooked on Ibogaine, Thompson tells a talk-show host in archival footage in the film. "Which is true," he adds. "I started the rumor."
