Wolfe's?

<< Thompson has some nasty things to say about Wolfe, particularly in
regards
 to his standing somewhat outside his journalistic subjects so that he
 doesn't really "get" what is going on at a fundamental, human level. >>

If Wolfe's going to be criticized based on Thompson's opinions, it seems
only 
fair to note that Thompson is a decrepit shadow of his former self, a 
burn-out and a wetbrain, and hasn't written much that's any good since he 
covered the McGovern campaign.
