R.I.P. Gary Webb -- Unembedded Reporter
There are so many issues raised in this article I can’t even offer a synopsis of it. You have to read it. And then read it again. And then ask yourself, ‘If this is the Government I am trusting to protect me from world wide terrorism and this is the media I am trusting to keep me informed on the issues that relate to my life and to my duties as a citizen of a democracy, where does that leave me?’ I am also asking if anyone is taking a real hard, skeptical look at the suicide of Gary Webb, hero journalist. It seems much too convenient to me. But I probably watch too much CSI and X-Files. And read too much Ludlum, Le Carre and Koontz.
