I dunno. According to Wikipedia:

    Thomas Kennerly "Tom" Wolfe, Jr. (born March 2, 1931)[1]     
    is an American author and journalist, best known for his 
    association and influence over the New Journalism literary 
    movement in which literary techniques are used in objective 
    even-handed journalism. 

The term "objective even-handed journalism" is a link to another Wikipedia article, which begins:

    Journalistic objectivity is a significant principle of 
    journalistic professionalism. Journalistic objectivity can refer 
    to fairness, disinterestedness, factuality, and nonpartisanship, 
    but most often encompasses all of these qualities.

Looking over this, it seems that he editorialized and opined on a great many subjects, but those appear at least to have been contained to essays, novels and opinion pieces.

I'll freely confess not knowing the man, or his work, and only know what's contained in and linked from the Wiki articles, so please correct me if I'm wrong, but to the idea that he would laugh at journalistic objectivity seems off to me, from what I'm reading.
