Scanlan's Monthly


 

Scanlan's Monthly was a short-lived monthly publication, running from March 1970 to January 1971. Edited by Warren Hinckle III and Sidney Zion, it featured politically controversial muckraking and was ultimately subject to an investigation by the FBI under Richard Nixon, and was being boycotted by publishing technicians as "un-American" by 1971.

Scanlan's is perhaps most remembered for featuring several articles by Hunter S. Thompson, and especially for what is considered the first instance of gonzo journalism, Thompson's "The Kentucky Derby is Decadent and Depraved". Thompson's articles from this period are collected with others in 'The Great Shark Hunt.
