#GaryWebb, the #PulitzerPrize winning reporter who broke the story of the CIAs involvement in the importation of cocaine into the U.S., died December 10, 2004, reportedly from self-inflicted gunshots to the head.

It was a tragic end to a brilliant, and tragic, career.

Gary Webb.

Journalist who exposed the CIA's operation to run cocaine into American cities and use the profits to fund its war in Nicaragua.

Just a couple years later, Gary committed "suicide".

Dont forget Gary Webb.

They Called It a Conspiracy: The Truth About the CIA, Contras, and Cocaine What if the deadliest drug epidemic in American history wasn't an accident, but a covert government operation? This is the story of a conspiracy so explosive it got buried, and the one journalist who lost everything to expose it. This podcast rips open the sealed files on Gary Webb and his explosive "Dark Alliance" series—the investigation that accused the CIA of fueling the crack cocaine epidemic in Los Angeles to fund a secret war with the Contras in Nicaragua. We'll take you back to the 1980s, onto the streets ruled by the notorious drug kingpin "Freeway" Rick Ross, and show you how his empire was allegedly built on a cocaine pipeline with direct ties to the CIA's proxy army. But this isn't just a simple conspiracy theory. We dissect the aftermath, where the full power of the media and the U.S. government descended to discredit Webb's reporting. We'll explore the official federal investigations that claimed there was no "official" plot, while also revealing the stunning admissions from the CIA's own Inspector General's report—which conceded the agency knew about Contra drug trafficking and often turned a blind eye. Was Gary Webb a journalistic hero who got too close to a terrifying truth, or did he push a narrative too far? We lay out the evidence, the denials, and the dark connections between American foreign policy and the devastation of its own cities. This is the definitive story of the Gary Webb and Dark Alliance controversy. Ready to question the official story?

Trump’s new #narcowar didn’t surprise me. I encourage all of you who didn’t live through the explosion of the crack epidemic (particularly but not exclusively in L.A.) to familiarize yourself w/ journalist #GaryWebb & #TheDarkAlliance expose on the CIA’s role in the epidemic. It cost him his life.

Gary Webb Facial Closeup and Headline saying: "Meet Gary Webb." Then, it goes on to say the following: "In 1996, Gary exposed how the CIA hired drug traffickers to sell massive amounts of cocaine in the United States, in order to to raise untraceable funds to finance a terrorist organization who were trying to overthrow the Nicaraguan government. These massive shipments of cocaine ultimately sparked the crack epidemic that decimated inner cities during the 90s. As a result, Mainstream Media vilified Gary Webb and destroyed his career, which also destroyed his marriage. But he refused to back down. In 2004, he was found dead with 2 bullet wounds to his head. His death was ruled a suicide. This man literally lost everything to give us a glimpse of the truth. Don't let his memory or what he stood for fade."

You as well. We’re survivors. It’s an obligation to get ppl to realize what they’re genuinely up against. Ppl like #GaryWebb, #PaulRobeson, #EdwardSnowden always come up for me as ppl who tried desperately to warn ppl about how dangerous times had become. The vast majority eventually just forgot.

Journalists in Distress (JiD) Network The JiD is a network of media freedom organisations which provide direct assistance to journalists and media workers who are at risk because of their work.

Sadder still, even newsroom journos can’t count on their editors to back them, as evidenced by #GaryWebb. CPJ is terrible at helping North American journos. New orgs exist 2 help women journos. Have contacts in your wallet. Start here: www.journalistsindistress.org

Let's add that Reagan is responsible for the crack epidemic fueled by the drugs he traded and distributed to every Black & Brown community in America. #IranContra #FreewayRickRoss #GaryWebb #CIA #DarkAlliance

Pubs who do not back their writers when we’re under attack are unworthy of support. To this day, I hate LAT, WAPO & SJMN for what they did to #GaryWebb when the CIA picked up the phone 2 tell them 2 destroy him w UTTERLY false allegations, ALL disproven. I’ve experienced it & I don’t forget.

I am NOT a WAPO fan not just bc of their joint hit squad to take down investigative journo #GaryWebb, but their (related) record of hiring current & former CIA assets as “reporters.” But this is a piece IS worth your time. The untold history is VAST.

The CIA. They’re the ones who started it, after call. Thank you, #GaryWebb. You lost your life over insisting on the truth.

#PaulRobeson, #EmmaGoldman, #IdaBWells, #MarxBrothers, #GaryWebb, #JessicaMitford are among my biggest heroes in addition to all the even better known leaders of civil, women’s, queer & workers rights movt’s. I am who I am bc they existed.
