A movie based on a true story of the
life of an American; Gary Webb, a Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist whose
investigation of the men and the government responsible for the crack cocaine
epidemic that spread through our nation.
This is his account of what happened as much as a movie can depict a man’s search for the truth when he is no longer alive; to verify how closely the movie is to the truth.
Kill the Messenger adapted from his book: Dark Alliance.

Gary Webb (Jeremy
Renner) an investigative reporter for the San Jose Mercury News searched
for the truth and found it.
It begins with the CIA backing the Nicaraguan Contras; allowing their smuggled cocaine into the United States then given to certain gangs that processed and sold it as crack cocaine to the south central area streets of Los Angeles in the 1980s.
Then, the Contras received the profits for their fight against reconstruction of their government in Nicaragua.

Allegations increased
that the US Government along with other agencies are responsible for the
epidemic of crack cocaine that explored through the black communities of our
nation.
Gary told his friend Fred Weil (Michael Sheen) his story was a true story that needed telling. And, Michael replied: Some stories are just too true to tell. Michael also told him it was dangerous.
When asked by Ronnie Quail (Robert Patrick): You believe in conspiracy
theories Gary?
Gary said I believe in conspiracy yes, there’s no theory about it. Many were too afraid to believe his story because then people did not view their opinions openly as they do today.

I will be happy when this movie premieres
on October 10th, 2014 I will be in line to see it. Always remember to research both sides of any story---because truth can sometimes read like fiction.
