Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:16,777 --> 00:00:20,262
...public enemy number one
in the United States...
2
00:00:20,380 --> 00:00:22,305
is drug abuse.
3
00:00:22,983 --> 00:00:25,192
In order to fight and defeat this enemy...
4
00:00:25,265 --> 00:00:30,151
it is necessary to wage a new,
all-out offensive.
5
00:00:31,391 --> 00:00:34,558
For nearly a year,
I have been devoting increasing attention...
6
00:00:34,635 --> 00:00:38,530
to a problem which strikes at the
very heart of our national well-being:
7
00:00:38,599 --> 00:00:39,761
Drug abuse.
8
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:43,815
I did not condone any drug abuse,
and we'll do everything possible to reduce...
9
00:00:43,924 --> 00:00:45,894
this serious threat to our society.
10
00:00:45,966 --> 00:00:48,255
Drugs are menacing our society.
11
00:00:48,328 --> 00:00:51,814
They're threatening our values and
undercutting our institutions.
12
00:00:52,092 --> 00:00:54,222
They're killing our children.
13
00:00:57,457 --> 00:00:58,984
Thank you very much.
14
00:01:00,180 --> 00:01:04,109
...and when it comes to
drugs and alcohol, just say“no.”
15
00:01:04,184 --> 00:01:06,997
Reagan says he will make it
a priority of his presidency...
16
00:01:07,067 --> 00:01:09,436
...to stop drug abuse in the United States.
17
00:01:09,790 --> 00:01:11,395
This is your brain on drugs.
18
00:01:11,472 --> 00:01:15,845
Those who smuggle and sell drugs are
as dangerous to our national security...
19
00:01:15,916 --> 00:01:18,650
...as any terrorist or foreign dictatorship.
20
00:01:18,759 --> 00:01:22,484
The Reagan administration
is spending billions on two wars...
21
00:01:22,563 --> 00:01:24,613
...the war on drugs at home
and the struggle for
22
00:01:24,685 --> 00:01:26,928
Nicaragua abroad.
23
00:01:27,007 --> 00:01:29,900
If we do not act decisively
in defense of freedom...
24
00:01:30,010 --> 00:01:33,780
...new Cubas will arise from
the ruins of today's conflicts.
25
00:01:33,854 --> 00:01:35,984
We will consult closely
with the Freedom Fighters.
26
00:01:36,056 --> 00:01:38,539
The anti-communist
rebels known as the “contras”...
27
00:01:38,659 --> 00:01:42,463
...an army founded and funded by the CIA.
28
00:01:43,343 --> 00:01:44,915
Crack cocaine...
29
00:01:45,025 --> 00:01:49,193
...a drug epidemic unlike any that's ever
probably existed in the history of the world.
30
00:01:49,309 --> 00:01:53,204
For five dollars, you can begin
the process of addicting people.
31
00:01:53,273 --> 00:01:55,513
Waging the war on drugs has
32
00:01:55,539 --> 00:02:00,268
...one hundred billion dollars
over the last ten years.
33
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:04,005
The crack trade has triggered a spasm of
gang warfare in south-central L.A...
34
00:02:04,084 --> 00:02:06,088
...and DEA agents are swarming throughout.
35
00:02:06,206 --> 00:02:07,972
How many of you have crack houses...
36
00:02:08,048 --> 00:02:10,337
...in your neighborhood?
37
00:02:10,971 --> 00:02:12,702
No brave law enforcement officer...
38
00:02:12,813 --> 00:02:13,940
...no teacher, no doctor,
39
00:02:14,054 --> 00:02:18,347
need be told how hard and cruel
America's drug problem has become.
40
00:02:18,418 --> 00:02:19,626
By nineteen eighty-four,
41
00:02:19,700 --> 00:02:22,627
Congress was preparing
to cut off funds to the Contras.
42
00:02:22,703 --> 00:02:27,555
High-level government officials began looking
for other ways to continue the aid program.
43
00:02:27,668 --> 00:02:31,643
There must be no Soviet beachhead
in Central America.
44
00:02:49,650 --> 00:02:50,732
Good morning.
45
00:02:52,212 --> 00:02:53,453
Who the fuck are you?
46
00:02:53,574 --> 00:02:56,056
Gary Webb. San Jose Mercury-News.
47
00:02:57,417 --> 00:02:58,580
What do you want?
48
00:02:58,659 --> 00:03:02,428
I called you about the government seizure of
property of accused narcotics dealers?
49
00:03:02,543 --> 00:03:06,187
Yeah. The accused. Yeah, that's me.
Come on in.
50
00:03:06,266 --> 00:03:08,270
Okay, great. Thanks.
51
00:03:10,751 --> 00:03:13,438
- My last house, this sweet pad in Laguna -
- Yeah?
52
00:03:13,554 --> 00:03:16,400
Charges didn't stick and
the feds still didn't give it back.
53
00:03:16,757 --> 00:03:19,000
- But you did it?
- Did what?
54
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,412
Well, off the record,
I mean, you sold the dope.
55
00:03:22,583 --> 00:03:25,826
Yeah, but you're missing the point.
They took the freaking roof over my head.
56
00:03:26,967 --> 00:03:28,129
Look, wait a sec...
57
00:03:28,248 --> 00:03:31,016
All this stuff that you bought
with the drug money - the houses,
58
00:03:31,131 --> 00:03:32,783
the cars, what have you -
59
00:03:33,494 --> 00:03:36,067
...you lose it because it's
the crime that paid for it, right?
60
00:03:36,136 --> 00:03:38,140
Did it, didn't do it... Who gives a shit?
61
00:03:38,499 --> 00:03:41,904
Can't take a man's shelter.
Anyway, they didn't prove it, did they?
62
00:03:41,982 --> 00:03:43,428
LA Sheriff's Department
- nobody move!
63
00:03:43,504 --> 00:03:44,995
- Let me see your hands!
64
00:03:45,065 --> 00:03:47,195
Christ. Here we go again.
65
00:03:47,307 --> 00:03:49,311
- Down, motherfucker down!
- Get the girl!
66
00:03:49,429 --> 00:03:50,478
Secure the girl!
67
00:03:50,551 --> 00:03:51,313
Look, I'm a reporter.
68
00:03:51,391 --> 00:03:52,474
Shut the fuck up!
69
00:03:52,553 --> 00:03:53,621
Better get that story out there.
70
00:03:53,634 --> 00:03:55,957
- San Jose Mercury News -
- Hey!
71
00:03:58,438 --> 00:04:00,010
I'm a reporter!
72
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:01,971
Quite a ruckus over there, huh?
73
00:04:02,042 --> 00:04:04,810
Yeah, this guy almost broke my fucking arm,
the prick.
74
00:04:07,327 --> 00:04:08,329
All right.
75
00:04:09,970 --> 00:04:11,336
Hey, wait a minute.
76
00:04:13,133 --> 00:04:16,858
Where...
77
00:04:17,337 --> 00:04:19,820
Yeah, I'm sorry. We ran outta inches.
78
00:04:19,980 --> 00:04:23,305
Look, you cut the kicker and you're gonna
blow the whole point to this thing.
79
00:04:23,383 --> 00:04:26,071
The government takes
these people's shit, all right?
80
00:04:26,186 --> 00:04:28,635
Their cars, their houses,
they take everything forever.
81
00:04:28,709 --> 00:04:30,600
This is before they're convicted.
82
00:04:30,671 --> 00:04:33,199
Even if they're acquitted,
they don't get it back.
83
00:04:33,514 --> 00:04:35,040
They're drug dealers.
84
00:04:35,155 --> 00:04:38,845
Alleged drug dealers, with rights.
Because this is America.
85
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,086
Four minutes until deadline.
86
00:04:41,201 --> 00:04:43,365
Well, take my name off the story.
87
00:04:43,484 --> 00:04:45,693
God, you can be such an asshole.
88
00:04:46,286 --> 00:04:49,020
I'm an asshole because
I believe in due process?
89
00:04:49,650 --> 00:04:51,700
Come on. This is our job.
90
00:04:52,452 --> 00:04:53,785
Clock's ticking.
91
00:04:54,895 --> 00:04:58,266
It's ticking.
92
00:04:58,859 --> 00:05:00,545
It's still ticking.
93
00:05:01,061 --> 00:05:02,872
And...
94
00:05:04,064 --> 00:05:05,636
...don't call back.
95
00:05:10,871 --> 00:05:13,274
This guy just had a shotgun in his ear.
Give him a break.
96
00:05:13,794 --> 00:05:15,764
No, there was no shotgun. All right, look,
97
00:05:15,876 --> 00:05:17,878
you're gonna have
to wait to read the article.
98
00:05:19,079 --> 00:05:21,083
Your son is sixteen. Just FYI.
99
00:05:21,201 --> 00:05:22,773
- I see you! Get rid of it. Honey?
100
00:05:22,883 --> 00:05:24,694
Come on, don't do that.
101
00:05:24,825 --> 00:05:26,527
- That's bad.
- That's amazing parenting.
102
00:05:26,567 --> 00:05:28,252
- "Don't do that."
- Don't do that.
103
00:05:28,328 --> 00:05:30,094
It's really not a big deal.
104
00:05:31,572 --> 00:05:32,734
Would somebody watch this?
105
00:05:33,293 --> 00:05:34,899
I gotta show you guys something.
106
00:05:40,821 --> 00:05:42,632
New addition to the family...
107
00:05:44,344 --> 00:05:45,187
Oh my god!
108
00:05:45,265 --> 00:05:46,553
Dad!
109
00:05:47,207 --> 00:05:49,952
Holy...
This is a '71 Tiger Sports Triumph.
110
00:05:50,110 --> 00:05:51,735
It's a beautiful bike or
it was a beautiful bike
111
00:05:51,761 --> 00:05:53,220
and we're going to make
it beautiful again.
112
00:05:53,273 --> 00:05:54,321
This is the only deal.
113
00:05:54,434 --> 00:05:56,883
- You and I have to rebuild it together, okay?
- Hey, hotshot.
114
00:05:56,957 --> 00:05:58,423
- Okay. I love you, Dad.
- All right. I love you.
115
00:05:58,438 --> 00:06:00,762
- We're happy.
- Goddammit.
116
00:06:00,881 --> 00:06:02,567
Yes?
117
00:06:02,883 --> 00:06:04,614
- We talked about this.
- Come on...
118
00:06:04,725 --> 00:06:05,887
- No, "come on." No.
- Look at him.
119
00:06:05,966 --> 00:06:07,652
- Look at this. Look at the bike...
- I see it.
120
00:06:07,768 --> 00:06:10,091
Look at this face.
121
00:06:10,170 --> 00:06:11,776
Inside my head.
122
00:06:11,892 --> 00:06:15,787
Me and my boy riding side by side,
to the mountaintops...
123
00:06:15,856 --> 00:06:17,188
- Touching the sky.
- Isn't that right?
124
00:06:17,297 --> 00:06:18,549
Anything happens to him
while he's on that bike
125
00:06:18,575 --> 00:06:19,566
Nothing's going
to happen to him.
126
00:06:19,620 --> 00:06:22,706
...I will cut these off
while you are sleeping.
127
00:06:22,783 --> 00:06:26,108
- Wow.
- I thought you already cut those off.
128
00:06:26,186 --> 00:06:28,715
While I'm sleeping!
129
00:06:38,238 --> 00:06:40,447
Dad, you hang out with
some insanely bad people.
130
00:06:40,521 --> 00:06:42,012
Don't eat your hair.
131
00:06:42,162 --> 00:06:42,962
Well...
132
00:06:43,003 --> 00:06:45,167
bad guys are usually more
honest than good guys.
133
00:06:45,285 --> 00:06:46,891
And more fun.
134
00:06:47,167 --> 00:06:49,741
- Life lessons by Gary Webb.
- No, Mom. You actually have to read this.
135
00:06:49,810 --> 00:06:51,655
I did already. It's great.
136
00:06:53,774 --> 00:06:54,899
You guys gotta go, come on.
137
00:06:54,935 --> 00:06:55,744
You heard the lady!
138
00:06:55,816 --> 00:06:58,709
Come on! Who wants to ride
in the green machine?
139
00:06:58,819 --> 00:07:00,823
- Dad's taking us?
- I'm taking you.
140
00:07:00,941 --> 00:07:02,832
You're not going in your PJ's, are you?
141
00:07:03,824 --> 00:07:05,156
Come on, guys!
142
00:07:05,225 --> 00:07:06,672
- Let's get smushed.
- That's where I sit.
143
00:07:06,787 --> 00:07:09,235
Got it? Step in like sardines.
144
00:07:09,349 --> 00:07:10,716
Bye, Momma!
145
00:07:10,791 --> 00:07:12,123
Bye Momma!
146
00:07:12,312 --> 00:07:13,884
- Bye, Momma!
- Bye.
147
00:07:14,194 --> 00:07:15,686
Bye Momma!
148
00:07:16,997 --> 00:07:20,288
- One, two, three...
- Bye, Mom!
149
00:07:40,300 --> 00:07:41,301
Here you go.
150
00:07:41,702 --> 00:07:43,627
- It's probably cold.
- Thank you.
151
00:07:44,024 --> 00:07:46,028
Hey, I know how bad you want
to do the Guv today.
152
00:07:46,346 --> 00:07:47,873
Some real reporter work.
153
00:07:47,988 --> 00:07:50,231
Yeah. How that shit gives you satisfaction,
I'll never know.
154
00:07:50,350 --> 00:07:51,763
Hey, that story this morning?
155
00:07:51,872 --> 00:07:53,034
That was a big one.
156
00:07:53,193 --> 00:07:55,563
- But not “the" big one.
- Yeah, what would that be?
157
00:07:55,676 --> 00:07:57,840
Catching Clinton breaking into Watergate?
158
00:07:58,078 --> 00:07:59,240
Hey.
159
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:01,485
Rich Kline, LA Times. How you doing?
160
00:08:01,762 --> 00:08:04,449
My editors are pissed that
we missed the drug forfeiture story.
161
00:08:04,565 --> 00:08:06,056
I'm sure they are.
162
00:08:07,047 --> 00:08:09,974
It's an amazing job, by the way.
You got any advice for me, or...?
163
00:08:10,330 --> 00:08:13,577
Ah, yeah. Don't let the assholes win?
I don't know.
164
00:08:13,654 --> 00:08:16,341
Hey, who's Coral Baca and
why does she keep calling me?
165
00:08:16,416 --> 00:08:17,988
Nobody?
166
00:08:21,622 --> 00:08:23,352
She called five times...?
167
00:08:26,426 --> 00:08:29,035
- Hola?
- Hi, this is Gary Webb.
168
00:08:29,109 --> 00:08:33,118
He finally calls. I like your work.
169
00:08:33,474 --> 00:08:35,079
You follow my work?
170
00:08:35,435 --> 00:08:37,087
I do now.
171
00:08:37,838 --> 00:08:39,443
Okay, what can I do for you?
172
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:42,329
It's what I can do for you.
173
00:08:42,563 --> 00:08:44,089
Okay, what can you do for me?
174
00:08:44,204 --> 00:08:48,133
My boyfriend Raffie's in prison,
for cocaine trafficking.
175
00:08:48,288 --> 00:08:50,897
That's Rafael Cornejo.
176
00:08:51,612 --> 00:08:53,024
Was that Columbian?
177
00:08:53,093 --> 00:08:53,981
- Nicaraguan.
178
00:08:54,094 --> 00:08:55,095
- Nicaraguan.
179
00:08:55,135 --> 00:08:58,939
He has this gorgeous house
the government just took.
180
00:08:59,259 --> 00:09:00,786
Good story, no?
181
00:09:00,901 --> 00:09:02,392
Yes, it is. I just wrote it.
182
00:09:02,463 --> 00:09:07,599
But Raffie's story is different.
He sold drugs for the government.
183
00:09:10,671 --> 00:09:12,117
You want to say that again?
184
00:09:12,232 --> 00:09:16,127
He brought four tons
of cocaine into the country...
185
00:09:16,236 --> 00:09:18,810
...for the U.S. government.
186
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:23,569
Look, you have a very lovely voice.
187
00:09:23,644 --> 00:09:26,856
- Thank you-
- I've copied every piece of paper.
188
00:09:27,047 --> 00:09:29,496
Selling drugs for the government.
189
00:09:29,610 --> 00:09:33,778
Have you written that story?
190
00:09:50,471 --> 00:09:52,395
This is the thing you need to see.
191
00:09:57,077 --> 00:09:58,364
Wait a minute.
192
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:01,772
You gotta be kidding me.
193
00:10:02,322 --> 00:10:03,849
Grand Jury transcript?
194
00:10:05,445 --> 00:10:06,733
How'd you get ahold of it?
195
00:10:06,847 --> 00:10:09,535
The government turned it over
on discovery by mistake.
196
00:10:09,610 --> 00:10:11,101
Yeah, some mistake.
197
00:10:12,172 --> 00:10:14,063
It was Russell Dodson.
198
00:10:14,374 --> 00:10:16,140
Federal prosecutor Russell Dodson?
199
00:10:16,216 --> 00:10:19,348
The little bitch.
I called the cops on him once.
200
00:10:19,940 --> 00:10:21,386
Called the cops on the feds?
201
00:10:21,502 --> 00:10:24,348
His goons were sneaking around my house.
202
00:10:24,705 --> 00:10:26,390
Could have been rapists.
203
00:10:29,990 --> 00:10:31,721
I think I'm gonna like you.
204
00:10:33,073 --> 00:10:35,043
So who's this Danilo Blandon?
205
00:10:35,115 --> 00:10:36,642
Wait.
206
00:10:36,717 --> 00:10:39,564
Ok. Let's see.
207
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:42,927
That's who sold drugs for the government.
208
00:10:43,403 --> 00:10:44,770
He was a friend.
209
00:10:44,885 --> 00:10:46,935
He played with my kid.
210
00:10:47,047 --> 00:10:48,379
Then he rats.
211
00:10:48,448 --> 00:10:51,182
He's probably the biggest trafficker
in the whole country.
212
00:10:51,251 --> 00:10:53,415
Way bigger than Raffie.
213
00:10:53,534 --> 00:10:57,223
Why use whale to catch catfish?
214
00:10:59,419 --> 00:11:03,827
- That make sense to you Gary Webb?
- Not very much sense. No it doesn't.
215
00:11:06,066 --> 00:11:07,752
You have more documents?
216
00:11:07,948 --> 00:11:09,918
Everything is at my house.
217
00:11:10,270 --> 00:11:11,922
You want to come over?
218
00:11:17,678 --> 00:11:21,402
Why don't you just send the documents
to my office? How's that?
219
00:11:22,763 --> 00:11:26,088
First things first, Gary Webb.
220
00:11:28,769 --> 00:11:30,819
Raffie's got court tomorrow.
221
00:11:32,773 --> 00:11:34,378
- Yeah?
- Be there.
222
00:12:29,109 --> 00:12:30,157
Am I late?
223
00:12:30,350 --> 00:12:32,354
The judge called an early recess.
224
00:12:33,754 --> 00:12:35,724
It could be fifteen minutes or so.
225
00:12:35,836 --> 00:12:38,922
- Right. Yeah. So we've got time.
- There's my boyfriend, Raffie...
226
00:12:40,681 --> 00:12:42,526
He looks friendly.
227
00:12:42,603 --> 00:12:44,926
He doesn't like seeing me with other men.
228
00:12:46,006 --> 00:12:48,375
And there is the little bitch.
229
00:12:48,689 --> 00:12:50,454
Russell Dodson.
230
00:12:52,332 --> 00:12:53,859
Be right back.
231
00:13:08,188 --> 00:13:12,163
So, Dodson. Gary Webb,
San Jose Mercury News.
232
00:13:13,714 --> 00:13:17,882
- You always follow people into bathrooms?
- No. Not really.
233
00:13:18,879 --> 00:13:21,692
So why is the local news
interested in this case?
234
00:13:22,082 --> 00:13:23,848
I'm not.
235
00:13:24,364 --> 00:13:27,177
But I am interested in Danilo Blandon.
236
00:13:30,491 --> 00:13:32,301
Never heard of him.
237
00:13:35,335 --> 00:13:37,385
Then why is he on your witness list?
238
00:13:39,780 --> 00:13:42,753
You had this guy cold on major
narcotics trafficking
239
00:13:42,823 --> 00:13:44,349
and you let him walk.
240
00:13:44,424 --> 00:13:45,712
Why?
241
00:13:48,428 --> 00:13:50,593
I have his grand jury transcript.
242
00:13:51,752 --> 00:13:51,957
I know.
243
00:13:52,072 --> 00:13:56,161
I've seen some screw ups outta
you guys but boy is that a big one.
244
00:14:30,991 --> 00:14:34,316
So what's the story? Feds use
a bad guy to catch other bad guy?
245
00:14:34,434 --> 00:14:37,247
- Do you even know what you have there?
- Yes, I know what this is.
246
00:14:37,317 --> 00:14:39,561
Well, it's unheard of. It's a gift.
247
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:41,006
And I asked around about Danilo Blandon.
248
00:14:41,121 --> 00:14:43,285
- No one has seemed-...
- We're talking here.
249
00:14:44,925 --> 00:14:45,734
I'm telling you...
250
00:14:45,806 --> 00:14:49,291
whatever I got near,
it made him very nervous.
251
00:14:50,210 --> 00:14:51,417
I know what I saw.
252
00:14:51,492 --> 00:14:53,656
- And I've been doing this a long time,
- okay? So -
253
00:14:53,734 --> 00:14:56,137
Don't do old and wise. I hate that.
254
00:14:56,256 --> 00:14:57,498
I'm not old.
255
00:14:57,558 --> 00:14:59,184
Come on. It's why you brought me in here.
256
00:14:59,199 --> 00:15:00,501
To go after stories like this.
257
00:15:00,581 --> 00:15:03,508
- But we're not the LA Times.
- We're not small-time, either.
258
00:15:03,664 --> 00:15:05,987
There's more here, I promise you.
259
00:15:13,474 --> 00:15:16,686
Get more info on Blandon
and then we'll take it to Jerry.
260
00:15:16,797 --> 00:15:18,483
I gotta get back to San Jose.
261
00:15:18,639 --> 00:15:20,290
Okay.
262
00:15:21,842 --> 00:15:23,892
Hello, hello!
263
00:15:26,487 --> 00:15:28,058
Smells good.
264
00:15:28,448 --> 00:15:29,975
Who's Coral?
265
00:15:30,531 --> 00:15:32,136
She's hot.
266
00:15:33,213 --> 00:15:34,979
She drove a Camaro.
267
00:15:35,055 --> 00:15:36,707
Of course she did.
268
00:15:36,897 --> 00:15:38,309
She left this?
269
00:15:38,859 --> 00:15:40,670
- Eat it.
- Mom, can we start?
270
00:15:40,741 --> 00:15:44,112
- Yes.
- Yes. That looks so good.
271
00:15:44,184 --> 00:15:47,556
- Yummy.
- Hello, gents.
272
00:15:48,068 --> 00:15:50,391
- Hi.
- Why does she know where you live?
273
00:15:50,511 --> 00:15:51,843
I don't know.
274
00:15:54,154 --> 00:15:57,879
- She's a source.
- Yeah? For a story about strippers?
275
00:15:57,998 --> 00:16:00,481
No. But that's a good one, though.
276
00:16:00,561 --> 00:16:01,210
Drug dealers.
277
00:16:01,281 --> 00:16:03,491
Okay. That's better.
278
00:16:06,366 --> 00:16:08,052
Is it happening again?
279
00:16:09,009 --> 00:16:11,902
- No.
- Is what happening again?
280
00:16:12,212 --> 00:16:13,214
Come on.
281
00:16:13,293 --> 00:16:14,093
Nothing.
282
00:16:14,174 --> 00:16:16,224
- What's in the box?
- Eat your food.
283
00:16:21,181 --> 00:16:22,514
- What happened with her?
- Nothing.
284
00:16:22,583 --> 00:16:24,234
What happened with her?
285
00:16:24,585 --> 00:16:26,236
Nothing.
286
00:16:26,547 --> 00:16:29,439
I mean, I'm not going to do this again.
It's why we left my family, my friends...
287
00:16:29,550 --> 00:16:32,134
- I know, I know.
- ...left Cleveland, moved out to California,
288
00:16:32,232 --> 00:16:33,075
which I hate...
289
00:16:33,193 --> 00:16:36,279
all this stupid sunshine
and shiny happy faces...
290
00:16:36,396 --> 00:16:39,084
- Sunshine is so dumb. It's terrible.
- I'm being serious.
291
00:16:39,159 --> 00:16:41,402
I know; well so am I.
292
00:16:42,122 --> 00:16:43,363
Baby...
293
00:16:44,084 --> 00:16:45,850
I'm not going to screw this up.
294
00:16:45,926 --> 00:16:47,452
Understand?
295
00:16:47,888 --> 00:16:49,574
Don't smile.
296
00:16:51,131 --> 00:16:54,183
She said there's another hearing tomorrow.
Seriously, I fucking hate you.
297
00:16:54,254 --> 00:16:56,065
I love you.
298
00:17:04,204 --> 00:17:05,737
...dismiss all charges against Mr.Cornejo.
299
00:17:05,786 --> 00:17:10,079
We are no longer proceeding
with the case, you Honor.
300
00:17:10,310 --> 00:17:11,598
Hey.
301
00:17:11,712 --> 00:17:13,124
Hi.
302
00:17:14,114 --> 00:17:15,276
So what's going on?
303
00:17:15,355 --> 00:17:17,964
I don't know. They've
been up there for a while.
304
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,449
The charges against Mr,
Cornejo are dismissed.
305
00:17:21,522 --> 00:17:23,366
You are free to go.
306
00:17:25,245 --> 00:17:26,897
What?
307
00:17:28,448 --> 00:17:31,182
Very impressive, Gary Webb.
308
00:17:31,411 --> 00:17:32,778
What just happened?
309
00:17:32,853 --> 00:17:34,983
You terrified them.
310
00:17:35,175 --> 00:17:39,070
They just stuffed
Danilo Blandon under a rug.
311
00:17:39,139 --> 00:17:43,148
He's off their witness list.
No Blandon, no case.
312
00:17:43,904 --> 00:17:45,874
Raffie walks.
313
00:17:53,674 --> 00:17:55,006
Hey, hey, hey-
314
00:17:56,316 --> 00:17:58,481
So you used me to get this
fucking case dropped?
315
00:17:58,559 --> 00:18:00,609
I'm just the bimbo, remember?
316
00:18:02,483 --> 00:18:03,485
Yeah, fuck you.
317
00:18:03,564 --> 00:18:05,853
Be happy, Gary Webb.
318
00:18:06,847 --> 00:18:09,170
You thought you were
getting a piece of cheese,
319
00:18:09,249 --> 00:18:11,493
but I just gave you the mouse.
320
00:18:13,854 --> 00:18:15,380
There's your story.
321
00:18:16,857 --> 00:18:18,463
Danilo Blandon.
322
00:19:00,340 --> 00:19:01,912
West coast...
323
00:19:32,172 --> 00:19:33,585
Sorry about the air conditioning.
324
00:19:33,694 --> 00:19:35,026
Come on in.
325
00:19:37,017 --> 00:19:39,260
- How you doing?
- Pretty well.
326
00:19:40,100 --> 00:19:42,754
You represent Ricky Ross,
the crack dealer?
327
00:19:44,505 --> 00:19:46,349
Alleged crack dealer.
328
00:19:46,547 --> 00:19:50,032
"Freeway Ricky Ross.
Biggest dealer in Los Angeles...
329
00:19:50,110 --> 00:19:53,914
the epicenter of the national
crack epidemic" L.A. Times.
330
00:19:54,194 --> 00:19:55,435
Who do you write for?
331
00:19:55,516 --> 00:19:57,600
- San Jose Mercury News.
- Never heard of them.
332
00:19:57,718 --> 00:20:00,087
Russell Dodson is the
prosecutor on your case?
333
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:01,812
That's public record. Yes.
334
00:20:01,962 --> 00:20:03,887
What about Danilo Blandon?
335
00:20:04,725 --> 00:20:07,518
- Maybe.
- Because I think he's going to testify
336
00:20:07,628 --> 00:20:08,837
against your client tomorrow.
337
00:20:08,869 --> 00:20:11,456
No, you've got that backwards.
338
00:20:11,572 --> 00:20:14,738
Blandon and my client
are friends and associates.
339
00:20:14,815 --> 00:20:18,300
If he's going to testify,
he'll be testifying for Ricky.
340
00:20:18,659 --> 00:20:20,310
That would be awkward.
341
00:20:20,461 --> 00:20:21,987
Why's that?
342
00:20:22,182 --> 00:20:23,993
Because he's a government informant.
343
00:20:24,064 --> 00:20:25,065
That's bullshit.
344
00:20:25,105 --> 00:20:28,191
I have a Grand Jury transcript
released on discovery by mistake...
345
00:20:28,308 --> 00:20:29,800
by our Russell Dodson.
346
00:20:29,910 --> 00:20:33,555
In it is evidence of Blandon testifying
against other drug dealers.
347
00:20:42,162 --> 00:20:44,850
Goddammit!
348
00:20:45,005 --> 00:20:47,009
Jesus, does that make sense.
349
00:20:47,087 --> 00:20:50,378
You would not believe the horseshit
that Dodson puts me through...
350
00:20:50,491 --> 00:20:52,495
every time I ask him who
his secret weapon is.
351
00:20:52,513 --> 00:20:53,601
Well it's not just Ricky,
352
00:20:53,614 --> 00:20:56,587
it's probably half a dozen guys
he's going to testify against-
353
00:20:56,657 --> 00:20:58,980
Fuck me! They block me!
354
00:20:59,059 --> 00:21:00,825
Every time I ask for something.
355
00:21:00,941 --> 00:21:02,148
Claiming - get this -
356
00:21:02,222 --> 00:21:04,033
National Security.
357
00:21:04,184 --> 00:21:07,236
National security and crack
cocaine in the same sentence?
358
00:21:07,427 --> 00:21:09,238
Does that not sound strange to you?
359
00:21:16,396 --> 00:21:18,800
Ok, what exactly do you want?
360
00:21:30,611 --> 00:21:31,693
Who's this?
361
00:21:32,172 --> 00:21:33,664
He's a reporter.
362
00:21:36,336 --> 00:21:38,306
So what do you know about Danilo Blandon?
363
00:21:44,064 --> 00:21:45,909
I don't know him.
364
00:21:49,229 --> 00:21:52,441
Come on Ricky. Danilo's going
to testify against you tomorrow.
365
00:21:52,553 --> 00:21:54,796
He's the witness they've been hiding.
366
00:21:56,036 --> 00:21:57,881
Man, there ain't no way
they flipped Danilo!
367
00:21:58,038 --> 00:22:01,090
Sit down, and listen to what he has to say.
368
00:22:04,685 --> 00:22:06,336
They didn't flip anyone.
369
00:22:07,207 --> 00:22:08,859
Ricky,
370
00:22:08,929 --> 00:22:11,742
Blandon was working for
the government the entire time.
371
00:22:12,893 --> 00:22:14,863
- You for real?
- Yeah.
372
00:22:14,935 --> 00:22:16,860
He for real?
373
00:22:17,217 --> 00:22:19,381
Blandon a snitch?
374
00:22:19,660 --> 00:22:21,585
Look here, man,
he was a thousand time heavier than
375
00:22:21,662 --> 00:22:22,585
I'll ever be.
376
00:22:22,663 --> 00:22:25,396
He's LA, New York, Atlanta,
He's everywhere.
377
00:22:25,466 --> 00:22:27,709
I couldn't sell it fast enough
to keep up with supply.
378
00:22:27,788 --> 00:22:29,554
- Slow down.
- Wait. You mean demand.
379
00:22:29,630 --> 00:22:31,281
No. I mean supply.
380
00:22:31,351 --> 00:22:33,675
I was buying a hundred kilos a week.
381
00:22:33,754 --> 00:22:35,724
Selling three million dollars a day.
382
00:22:35,796 --> 00:22:37,926
And still couldn't get rid of
that inventory fast enough, man.
383
00:22:38,038 --> 00:22:39,039
It was raining coke.
384
00:22:39,079 --> 00:22:39,729
- Allegedly, Ricky.
- Allegedly.
385
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:41,132
Allegedly.
386
00:22:41,241 --> 00:22:46,291
Look here, man. I gave him...
six million a week. Allegedly.
387
00:22:49,129 --> 00:22:51,099
- That's impossible.
- Is it?
388
00:22:51,932 --> 00:22:54,141
- I'm exaggerating, Fenster?
- Yeah, I hope so.
389
00:22:54,214 --> 00:22:56,344
How do you sell that much
cocaine on the street?
390
00:22:56,456 --> 00:22:58,142
Look here, man, we used to cook it.
391
00:22:58,218 --> 00:22:59,459
With baking soda.
392
00:22:59,580 --> 00:23:02,792
We called it Ready Rock.
Powder was for rich folks.
393
00:23:02,903 --> 00:23:04,555
Holy shit.
394
00:23:05,225 --> 00:23:09,792
Look here, man, I was just the elf.
Blandon was Santa Claus.
395
00:23:22,122 --> 00:23:24,492
This is where Ricky ran his operation.
396
00:23:28,448 --> 00:23:30,259
No, don't get out of the car!
397
00:24:14,695 --> 00:24:16,620
Are you out of your fucking mind?
398
00:24:18,178 --> 00:24:19,180
How did this happen?
399
00:24:19,259 --> 00:24:21,708
Exactly. Which is why we're
going to get the hell out of here.
400
00:24:21,782 --> 00:24:24,390
What about this doesn't piss you off?
401
00:24:24,945 --> 00:24:26,152
It's complicated for me.
402
00:24:26,226 --> 00:24:28,550
Whatever the hell happened,
all this shit has run downhill,
403
00:24:28,629 --> 00:24:29,711
right here.
404
00:24:30,350 --> 00:24:32,161
I need to speak with Blandon.
405
00:24:32,212 --> 00:24:33,494
He's a protected witness.
How are you going to do that?
406
00:24:33,514 --> 00:24:36,600
Yes, I know. I can't.
407
00:24:37,558 --> 00:24:39,528
But you can.
408
00:24:42,362 --> 00:24:43,695
Mr. Blandon.
409
00:24:44,284 --> 00:24:46,574
During the years when you
were acting as a paid
410
00:24:46,687 --> 00:24:48,213
informant of the U.S. government.
411
00:24:48,288 --> 00:24:53,644
The years you say you wholesaled cocaine
to my client in Los Angeles...
412
00:24:53,654 --> 00:24:55,230
was the government aware that you were
413
00:24:55,255 --> 00:24:57,909
smuggling tons of cocaine
into the United States.
414
00:24:58,018 --> 00:25:00,991
Objection. Relevance. Inflammatory.
415
00:25:01,061 --> 00:25:03,065
The government called this witness,
your honor.
416
00:25:03,223 --> 00:25:05,752
He is a paid confidential informant.
417
00:25:05,826 --> 00:25:08,912
The jury has a right to know
the scope of his expertise.
418
00:25:09,429 --> 00:25:11,354
Overruled.
419
00:25:13,594 --> 00:25:15,758
- Approach, your honor?
- Later.
420
00:25:18,398 --> 00:25:19,845
Mr. Blandon?
421
00:25:20,921 --> 00:25:21,923
Yes.
422
00:25:22,002 --> 00:25:23,813
- Yes what?
- The government knew.
423
00:25:23,924 --> 00:25:27,136
- Knew everything?
- Objection. Speculation.
424
00:25:27,287 --> 00:25:29,257
Sustained.
425
00:25:29,449 --> 00:25:30,737
Mr. Blandon...
426
00:25:30,811 --> 00:25:34,296
how much money did you
take in from cocaine sales
427
00:25:34,374 --> 00:25:37,062
while you were working
for the U.S. government?
428
00:25:40,821 --> 00:25:44,796
One and a half billion dollars.
429
00:25:44,865 --> 00:25:46,106
That's correct.
430
00:25:46,266 --> 00:25:47,872
What did you do with that money?
431
00:25:47,948 --> 00:25:53,323
We made so much money we had to keep an
apartment just to keep the cash.
432
00:25:54,074 --> 00:25:56,683
It was floor to ceiling dollars.
433
00:25:56,957 --> 00:25:59,360
We had to rotate the money
from the top to the bottom...
434
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:04,492
to prevent mold from coming
on the money from the humidity.
435
00:26:04,565 --> 00:26:05,473
What the fuck does this say?
436
00:26:05,486 --> 00:26:07,536
Did he have a partner
or a government agency he
437
00:26:07,648 --> 00:26:09,299
was working with?
438
00:26:09,369 --> 00:26:14,141
Mr. Blandon, were you working
with a partner at that time?
439
00:26:14,294 --> 00:26:15,342
Yes.
440
00:26:15,856 --> 00:26:19,068
Norwin Meneses.
441
00:26:19,139 --> 00:26:20,506
That's correct.
442
00:26:20,521 --> 00:26:22,904
Wait a second, what exactly
is happening here, your honor?
443
00:26:22,943 --> 00:26:26,075
Clearly, this reporter
is giving direction to counsel.
444
00:26:26,146 --> 00:26:28,196
- Approach.
- Thank you.
445
00:26:31,191 --> 00:26:34,357
Your honor, this man
in the first row is a reporter
446
00:26:34,434 --> 00:26:36,040
and he's giving questions to counsel.
447
00:26:36,156 --> 00:26:38,001
If he is, and I'm not saying that he is...
448
00:26:38,078 --> 00:26:40,003
Well, he is.
449
00:26:43,003 --> 00:26:46,374
Ok, he is. But there's nothing in
the rules that says he can't.
450
00:26:46,446 --> 00:26:47,654
I don't like it.
451
00:26:47,728 --> 00:26:49,732
But I'm not going to stop it.
For now.
452
00:26:49,850 --> 00:26:52,743
Then I am compelled to warn
the court that this door leads to
453
00:26:52,853 --> 00:26:55,301
very sensitive national security matters.
454
00:26:55,375 --> 00:26:57,665
Then maybe you shouldn't
have opened it.
455
00:27:05,666 --> 00:27:09,561
Mr. Blandon, is it true
that you and Norwin Meneses...
456
00:27:09,630 --> 00:27:13,559
were in communication with
the federal government together?
457
00:27:15,876 --> 00:27:18,199
Can you tell us who in the
federal government you
458
00:27:18,358 --> 00:27:19,930
were in communication with?
459
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:21,726
Who were you working with?
460
00:27:23,003 --> 00:27:24,609
The FBI?
461
00:27:30,731 --> 00:27:34,979
Mr. Dodson can't answer
that question for you, Mr. Blandon.
462
00:27:35,175 --> 00:27:37,579
Remember, you're under oath.
463
00:27:38,418 --> 00:27:40,422
The DEA?
464
00:27:41,782 --> 00:27:43,627
No.
465
00:27:43,824 --> 00:27:46,033
It was the CIA.
466
00:27:46,106 --> 00:27:48,874
The Central Intelligence Agency.
467
00:27:50,430 --> 00:27:52,434
Yes.
468
00:27:52,993 --> 00:27:55,282
So, Mr. Blandon...
469
00:27:55,996 --> 00:27:58,285
what did the CIA have you do?
470
00:27:58,438 --> 00:28:00,044
Objection! Relevance, your honor!
471
00:28:00,120 --> 00:28:03,606
Overruled. Mr. Blandon,
answer the question.
472
00:28:17,097 --> 00:28:20,422
We were asked to support...
473
00:28:20,781 --> 00:28:25,474
a free and democratic Nicaragua
- the Contras...
474
00:28:25,546 --> 00:28:27,117
the rebels...
475
00:28:27,628 --> 00:28:31,078
by sending planes into
Nicaragua and raising money here
476
00:28:31,151 --> 00:28:33,634
in the U.S. for the war.
477
00:28:36,997 --> 00:28:38,808
Mr. Blandon...
478
00:28:39,399 --> 00:28:44,410
did the CIA specifically know
that you were selling cocaine...
479
00:28:44,485 --> 00:28:47,492
to buy guns and supplies
to support its cause?
480
00:28:47,568 --> 00:28:51,782
Objection! This line of
questioning has absolutely no relevance.
481
00:28:51,852 --> 00:28:54,334
Overruled.
482
00:28:55,295 --> 00:28:57,585
They knew who we were.
483
00:28:57,858 --> 00:29:00,227
Why else would they come to us?
484
00:29:15,556 --> 00:29:16,795
The day Ronald Reagan got elected,
485
00:29:16,821 --> 00:29:18,654
the Cubans and the Soviets
started triggering...
486
00:29:18,739 --> 00:29:20,962
revolutions all over
South and Central America.
487
00:29:21,041 --> 00:29:22,328
And when they got Nicaragua...
488
00:29:22,483 --> 00:29:23,929
that put them fifty miles
from the Panama Canal.
489
00:29:24,004 --> 00:29:25,379
Reagan drew the line in the sand.
490
00:29:25,526 --> 00:29:28,088
And that's where America was
going to win the Cold War. Except...
491
00:29:28,168 --> 00:29:30,971
Congress hated Reagan's guts,
so they wanted nothing to do with him.
492
00:29:31,011 --> 00:29:33,699
They were never going to
fund his little Contra war.
493
00:29:33,814 --> 00:29:36,548
So the White House needed money.
Lots and lots of money.
494
00:29:36,617 --> 00:29:37,701
Guys, that's the eighties.
495
00:29:37,738 --> 00:29:38,661
It's ten year old news.
What's the story?
496
00:29:38,739 --> 00:29:39,342
Jerry, just let him finish.
497
00:29:39,500 --> 00:29:44,671
Look, one of the DEA's most wanted
- not only not in jail for eternity...
498
00:29:44,745 --> 00:29:46,316
but apparently
on the government payroll.
499
00:29:46,386 --> 00:29:48,551
Admitting in open court
that he brought in thousands
500
00:29:48,669 --> 00:29:51,151
of kilos of cocaine to the US every day.
501
00:29:51,231 --> 00:29:52,074
For them.
502
00:29:52,192 --> 00:29:52,842
For who?
503
00:29:52,913 --> 00:29:54,325
The US government.
Or with them.
504
00:29:54,394 --> 00:29:56,684
Or at least while
they were looking the other way.
505
00:29:56,877 --> 00:29:57,720
Jesus.
506
00:29:57,798 --> 00:29:59,723
That little stunt
you pulled in that courtroom...
507
00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:02,852
I got complaints
from Justice in Sacramento and Washington.
508
00:30:02,923 --> 00:30:04,005
Yeah, but I got Blandon.
509
00:30:04,084 --> 00:30:05,211
Jerry.
510
00:30:05,726 --> 00:30:08,299
This is the biggest
story the Merc's ever had.
511
00:30:08,368 --> 00:30:11,740
That's what worries me.
A lot of blind spots, you know?
512
00:30:11,852 --> 00:30:14,221
We don't know Washington.
We don't do International.
513
00:30:14,334 --> 00:30:15,177
We do now.
514
00:30:15,255 --> 00:30:18,148
We do, do we? How many
CIA sources to you have?
515
00:30:18,218 --> 00:30:20,222
- None yet.
- Get one.
516
00:30:21,742 --> 00:30:23,508
What are they saying officially?
517
00:30:23,944 --> 00:30:25,356
They're not even calling me back.
518
00:30:26,747 --> 00:30:28,318
Holy shit.
519
00:30:29,510 --> 00:30:30,637
Gary...
520
00:30:30,751 --> 00:30:33,598
You get some sources on the record,
see where we're at.
521
00:30:33,674 --> 00:30:35,325
Watch your ass.
522
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:43,245
The success of Communism in
Central America poses the threat...
523
00:30:43,363 --> 00:30:47,578
that a hundred million people from Panama
to the open border at our south...
524
00:30:47,648 --> 00:30:50,734
could come under the control
of pro-Soviet regimes.
525
00:30:50,931 --> 00:30:52,901
If we cut off the freedom fighters...
526
00:30:52,973 --> 00:30:57,141
we will be giving the Soviets
a free hand in Central America.
527
00:32:06,446 --> 00:32:08,177
Mr.Meneses?
528
00:32:09,329 --> 00:32:12,017
Hi. Gary Webb. How are you?
529
00:32:13,413 --> 00:32:16,546
Ok. What took you so long?
530
00:32:17,898 --> 00:32:19,504
How's that?
531
00:32:19,660 --> 00:32:22,142
No other reporter
has ever tried to find me.
532
00:32:23,063 --> 00:32:25,193
Are you a friend, Mr. Webb?
533
00:32:25,265 --> 00:32:28,192
Because your country
is no longer a friend of mine.
534
00:32:28,629 --> 00:32:30,394
I'm not an enemy.
535
00:32:33,674 --> 00:32:34,915
You play golf?
536
00:32:36,877 --> 00:32:38,368
Hockey.
537
00:32:39,119 --> 00:32:41,408
Step into my parlor.
538
00:32:57,017 --> 00:32:58,383
The five iron.
539
00:32:58,899 --> 00:33:00,903
A perfectly designed club.
540
00:33:01,542 --> 00:33:05,231
In golf, if you have a five iron,
you don't need anything else.
541
00:33:05,305 --> 00:33:09,075
If you use it, like a tool.
You can carve any shot in the game.
542
00:33:09,149 --> 00:33:12,714
You can even slice a man open
if you know how to use it properly.
543
00:33:18,158 --> 00:33:20,562
So, guns for drugs...
544
00:33:22,002 --> 00:33:25,407
You know, it's easy to think that
this situation was only about drugs.
545
00:33:25,526 --> 00:33:27,929
But you need to look at
it from our point of view.
546
00:33:28,008 --> 00:33:31,254
If the Contra movement would
have no friends and no money...
547
00:33:31,331 --> 00:33:33,940
we would have been forced to live under
a government that tells you what to say,
548
00:33:34,054 --> 00:33:36,423
what not to say, what to think,
what not to think.
549
00:33:36,497 --> 00:33:38,706
If you were me,
would you sit still and watch as your
550
00:33:38,779 --> 00:33:39,268
children are forced...
551
00:33:39,379 --> 00:33:45,154
to live a life of
irrelevance and servitude?
552
00:33:45,385 --> 00:33:47,276
And you watched
from the deck of your yacht?
553
00:33:47,347 --> 00:33:48,714
My yacht?
554
00:33:48,789 --> 00:33:52,957
Norwin, you were arrested for trafficking
narcotics for the first time in 1975.
555
00:33:53,033 --> 00:33:55,322
That's ten years before the Contra war.
556
00:33:55,796 --> 00:33:58,643
Come on, you're not a freedom fighter.
557
00:33:59,279 --> 00:34:01,283
I thought you were my friend.
558
00:34:01,522 --> 00:34:03,207
Just looking for the truth.
559
00:34:03,283 --> 00:34:05,094
Well you're gonna get the truth.
560
00:34:05,165 --> 00:34:07,329
You got someone else down here
I could talk to?
561
00:34:07,447 --> 00:34:10,101
I can introduce you to my banker, Mr. Baier.
562
00:34:10,170 --> 00:34:11,776
I'd like that.
563
00:34:19,019 --> 00:34:21,149
Come, I show you the airstrip now.
564
00:34:24,384 --> 00:34:25,831
So when did all of this start?
565
00:34:26,026 --> 00:34:29,477
They were always looking
for ways to raise money to fight this war.
566
00:34:30,310 --> 00:34:32,475
There was this one time when Ollie...
567
00:34:33,193 --> 00:34:35,676
Ollie went to his friends in Washington,
568
00:34:35,836 --> 00:34:39,127
- and this is years ago-
- Oliver North?
569
00:34:39,199 --> 00:34:40,612
Oliver North.
570
00:34:40,801 --> 00:34:43,569
No, Oliver Hardy. Yes, Oliver North.
571
00:34:43,644 --> 00:34:47,094
So he said why don't we use the cash
seized from the cocaine arrests...
572
00:34:47,167 --> 00:34:49,537
to fund and support the Contra war?
573
00:34:49,650 --> 00:34:51,301
Of course, they declined you know.
574
00:34:51,371 --> 00:34:52,419
But as you can see,
575
00:34:52,493 --> 00:34:55,659
Ollie wasn't the only
person with ideas like this.
576
00:35:02,142 --> 00:35:03,509
Did it have to be drugs?
577
00:35:03,904 --> 00:35:05,988
The ends justify the means.
578
00:35:06,426 --> 00:35:07,714
Yeah, write that down.
579
00:35:07,868 --> 00:35:09,520
You Americans don't
want coconuts or bananas.
580
00:35:09,630 --> 00:35:12,363
You want cocaine,
and I know where to find cocaine.
581
00:35:12,473 --> 00:35:17,005
And my pilots were already flying
from Central America to the United States.
582
00:35:17,077 --> 00:35:18,683
And they were American.
583
00:35:18,839 --> 00:35:20,570
How long ago was this shut down?
584
00:35:21,081 --> 00:35:23,530
Eight to ten years ago.
585
00:35:24,885 --> 00:35:26,969
The land is now privately owned.
586
00:35:30,090 --> 00:35:34,544
If I was in the CIA and I was risking my life
overseas doing something illegal...
587
00:35:34,975 --> 00:35:40,066
believe me, I would want someone
like me to help do the job.
588
00:35:40,661 --> 00:35:42,745
Write this name down: Fred Weil.
589
00:35:42,903 --> 00:35:44,669
W-E-I-L
590
00:35:44,985 --> 00:35:46,910
That's the guy you have to talk to.
591
00:35:48,709 --> 00:35:49,950
What was stored here?
592
00:35:50,070 --> 00:35:53,043
Weapons. Cash.
593
00:35:53,113 --> 00:35:55,847
Lots and lots of cash.
594
00:35:57,918 --> 00:35:59,729
These pilots, do you know their names?
595
00:35:59,880 --> 00:36:01,725
I don't know.
596
00:36:03,644 --> 00:36:05,806
Now that you know the truth,
you will be faced with the
597
00:36:05,846 --> 00:36:07,691
most important decision of your life.
598
00:36:07,768 --> 00:36:09,419
Oh yeah. What's that?
599
00:36:10,090 --> 00:36:12,220
Deciding whether to share it or not.
600
00:36:15,415 --> 00:36:17,705
You have a family? You married?
601
00:36:21,502 --> 00:36:23,312
Like I said.
602
00:36:27,267 --> 00:36:32,153
The pilots used little airstrips
in Florida, Arizona, California.
603
00:36:32,272 --> 00:36:33,685
Come.
604
00:36:53,253 --> 00:36:54,745
I'll take care of it.
605
00:36:56,256 --> 00:36:58,739
Down on your knees.
Keep your head down.
606
00:36:59,540 --> 00:37:00,702
Don't answer that.
607
00:37:03,464 --> 00:37:05,274
Passport.
608
00:37:20,481 --> 00:37:22,804
Yes, we have to go now.
We're leaving.
609
00:37:22,963 --> 00:37:25,206
Nice and calm.
610
00:37:27,447 --> 00:37:29,338
Nice and calm.
611
00:38:09,770 --> 00:38:10,613
You're where?
612
00:38:10,691 --> 00:38:12,695
I'm in DC. And look, don't worry.
613
00:38:12,813 --> 00:38:13,613
You want me here.
614
00:38:13,654 --> 00:38:14,816
Trust me on this, Anna.
615
00:38:14,895 --> 00:38:15,863
The guys are getting nervous.
616
00:38:15,976 --> 00:38:17,138
You're supposed to be back here.
617
00:38:17,217 --> 00:38:20,064
Look, I changed planes in Miami.
I kept all my receipts.
618
00:38:20,180 --> 00:38:23,506
I'll pay for my own damn flight back
home if I have to, all right?
619
00:38:23,584 --> 00:38:24,392
We can't do this on the phone,
620
00:38:24,465 --> 00:38:26,434
and I don't want
to do this on the phone.
621
00:38:26,547 --> 00:38:28,836
Look, I've got to go.
622
00:38:42,042 --> 00:38:43,169
Fred Weil?
623
00:38:44,124 --> 00:38:46,254
Gary Webb, San Jose Mercury-News.
624
00:38:46,446 --> 00:38:48,736
I don't talk to the press.
Call Public Affairs.
625
00:38:50,370 --> 00:38:52,215
I spoke to Norwin Meneses.
626
00:38:57,017 --> 00:39:00,183
That's classified. How did you get it?
627
00:39:00,621 --> 00:39:02,466
Got it from a drug dealer.
628
00:39:05,145 --> 00:39:06,352
Perfect.
629
00:39:08,028 --> 00:39:13,518
Listen, I was John Kerry's lead investigator on
the senate subcommittee that investigated this.
630
00:39:13,594 --> 00:39:16,806
You have no idea
what you're getting into.
631
00:39:19,159 --> 00:39:20,207
Why don't you tell me?
632
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:21,886
Tell me what I'm getting into.
633
00:39:27,848 --> 00:39:30,934
I'm on the National
Security Council now.
634
00:39:31,932 --> 00:39:35,782
And I have the trust
of the President and his cabinet.
635
00:39:37,978 --> 00:39:41,428
It took me ten years
to get back to that place.
636
00:39:41,502 --> 00:39:43,905
Your name goes nowhere near this.
637
00:39:44,304 --> 00:39:47,517
This conversation never happened.
You have my word on that.
638
00:39:49,069 --> 00:39:50,671
You ever done anything like this before?
639
00:39:50,751 --> 00:39:51,913
No.
640
00:39:51,992 --> 00:39:53,199
Has your paper?
641
00:39:53,313 --> 00:39:54,646
Not that I'm aware of.
642
00:39:56,877 --> 00:39:59,166
Some fancy information that you have there.
643
00:40:00,801 --> 00:40:02,372
And dangerous.
644
00:40:02,483 --> 00:40:04,533
I'd be remiss if I didn't
tell you that other reporters
645
00:40:04,645 --> 00:40:07,457
have been down this rabbit hole.
646
00:40:07,528 --> 00:40:10,374
Seasoned reporters.
Who knew their way around Washington.
647
00:40:10,491 --> 00:40:11,492
And Central America.
648
00:40:11,532 --> 00:40:14,014
- So what are you telling me?
- I had an American citizen...
649
00:40:14,174 --> 00:40:18,342
a rich Republican Party fund-raiser,
a White House favorite, in my office..
650
00:40:18,418 --> 00:40:20,263
upset about things he was hearing.
651
00:40:20,340 --> 00:40:23,347
He believed in freedom
and defeating communism...
652
00:40:23,423 --> 00:40:26,350
but not in laundering
narcotics money for guns.
653
00:40:26,426 --> 00:40:30,116
And he's sitting
in my office in the U.S. Senate...
654
00:40:30,190 --> 00:40:35,042
and he gets a phone call
telling him that if he talked to me...
655
00:40:35,195 --> 00:40:36,722
he'd die.
656
00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:42,926
This is your ticket out of small time,
right?
657
00:40:43,363 --> 00:40:45,972
- You're going to make your bones on this.
- This is a true story
658
00:40:46,046 --> 00:40:48,939
My friend, some stories
are just too true to tell.
659
00:40:50,531 --> 00:40:52,182
That's bullshit.
660
00:40:52,252 --> 00:40:53,459
Yeah?
661
00:40:55,496 --> 00:40:57,226
And yes, it is.
662
00:40:57,538 --> 00:40:59,508
Congratulations.
You figured that out.
663
00:41:03,063 --> 00:41:04,988
“Too true to tell.”
664
00:41:14,915 --> 00:41:18,240
Welcome to San Francisco
International airport.
665
00:41:18,318 --> 00:41:20,801
Please do not leave your bags unattended.
666
00:43:00,300 --> 00:43:04,515
Sometimes I wish I could just climb
inside that head of yours
667
00:43:05,025 --> 00:43:07,268
and see all the shit you carry around.
668
00:43:07,347 --> 00:43:08,839
Really?
669
00:43:08,909 --> 00:43:11,677
No. Not really.
670
00:43:15,435 --> 00:43:17,166
There's too many bad guys.
671
00:43:18,599 --> 00:43:20,170
And ghosts.
672
00:43:20,481 --> 00:43:23,214
And scary monsters running around.
673
00:43:23,484 --> 00:43:26,889
Well, what do you want me to do,
Sue? Do something else for a living?
674
00:43:28,368 --> 00:43:29,531
No.
675
00:43:35,375 --> 00:43:37,027
This one just scares me.
676
00:43:42,943 --> 00:43:43,944
Be careful.
677
00:43:45,866 --> 00:43:47,028
Hey.
678
00:43:55,716 --> 00:43:56,717
Yeah.
679
00:44:02,923 --> 00:44:04,449
Jesus.
680
00:44:08,729 --> 00:44:09,731
Hello?
681
00:44:09,850 --> 00:44:11,581
It's Russell Dodson.
682
00:44:15,455 --> 00:44:16,947
Hello, Russell Dodson.
683
00:44:17,057 --> 00:44:20,223
Listen, we haven't
handled this right at all.
684
00:44:20,380 --> 00:44:22,670
Before you print anything,
there's a few guys from
685
00:44:22,743 --> 00:44:25,066
D.C. that would like
to sit down with you.
686
00:44:25,626 --> 00:44:27,517
You should hear them out.
687
00:44:28,709 --> 00:44:30,155
I'm listening.
688
00:44:51,131 --> 00:44:52,213
Gary.
689
00:44:52,533 --> 00:44:53,899
Thanks for coming.
690
00:44:53,974 --> 00:44:56,628
I'm Agent Miller,
and this is Agent Jones.
691
00:44:56,937 --> 00:44:59,625
- Can we get you a cup of coffee?
- No.
692
00:45:00,180 --> 00:45:02,150
How about one of those cappuccinos?
693
00:45:02,262 --> 00:45:06,477
Just got a new espresso machine probably
cost the tax payers thirty grand.
694
00:45:07,708 --> 00:45:09,120
No, I'm fine.
695
00:45:10,991 --> 00:45:12,757
Get him a cappuccino.
696
00:45:16,837 --> 00:45:18,879
Now we don't agree
with everything that happens in
697
00:45:18,919 --> 00:45:21,528
our agencies, so this
is a little awkward for us.
698
00:45:21,642 --> 00:45:24,933
But you're getting
into some sensitive areas.
699
00:45:25,005 --> 00:45:29,059
There are ongoing operations
you're in danger of exposing.
700
00:45:29,409 --> 00:45:33,304
Operations that have taken months,
years to set up.
701
00:45:33,453 --> 00:45:36,666
Thousands of man hours,
millions to fund.
702
00:45:40,501 --> 00:45:41,992
And how do you know that?
703
00:45:42,422 --> 00:45:46,830
We know you were in Nicaragua.
We know you saw Meneses.
704
00:45:51,151 --> 00:45:52,723
Am I being followed?
705
00:45:53,233 --> 00:45:54,234
What's your angle, Webb?
706
00:45:54,314 --> 00:45:56,843
Some governmental informants are scumbags?
707
00:45:56,917 --> 00:45:59,959
Look, I was under the impression that
you guys had something to say to me?
708
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:01,845
But, to answer your question, no.
709
00:46:01,962 --> 00:46:04,092
My angle is that the
American government knew drugs were
710
00:46:04,164 --> 00:46:06,328
put on the streets
to fund an illegal war.
711
00:46:06,446 --> 00:46:09,533
What you want to say happened,
never happened.
712
00:46:13,293 --> 00:46:15,104
Then why am I here?
713
00:46:15,335 --> 00:46:16,862
American kids...
714
00:46:16,937 --> 00:46:18,703
were going to die in that war.
715
00:46:19,019 --> 00:46:21,832
American kids did die.
They're still dying.
716
00:46:22,022 --> 00:46:24,551
Just not the ones you care about,
apparently.
717
00:46:24,905 --> 00:46:27,559
We'd never threaten your children, Mr. Webb.
718
00:46:27,628 --> 00:46:29,358
My children?
719
00:46:30,471 --> 00:46:32,281
What did you say?
720
00:46:43,043 --> 00:46:44,729
I'm writing the story.
721
00:48:40,080 --> 00:48:42,927
Okay. I'm about to press “send”.
722
00:48:43,203 --> 00:48:45,732
We're ready. All hands on deck.
723
00:48:45,846 --> 00:48:47,498
Don't over-edit it.
724
00:48:48,008 --> 00:48:49,249
Don't worry.
725
00:48:50,971 --> 00:48:51,972
Anna.
726
00:48:52,172 --> 00:48:54,542
Gary. I got it.
727
00:48:55,335 --> 00:48:57,339
Go enjoy your family.
728
00:49:16,837 --> 00:49:19,001
Let's go, let's go, let's go!
729
00:49:19,079 --> 00:49:21,688
All right last one in is a rotten egg!
730
00:49:25,886 --> 00:49:27,572
Is it cold or warm?
731
00:49:27,728 --> 00:49:28,571
- It's warm.
- Ready?
732
00:49:28,729 --> 00:49:30,779
All right; precious cargo.
733
00:49:32,533 --> 00:49:33,945
Dizzy yet?
734
00:49:34,054 --> 00:49:35,181
- No.
- Okay.
735
00:49:35,255 --> 00:49:37,339
Come on, Momma!
736
00:49:37,417 --> 00:49:39,502
- Come on, Mom, get in.
- Why do they gang up on momma?
737
00:49:39,580 --> 00:49:43,304
- You have to dry my hair!
- Where you going, Dad?
738
00:49:44,745 --> 00:49:46,795
- Dad...
- Don't!
739
00:49:59,119 --> 00:50:01,089
Dad, it's up! It's online!
740
00:50:01,562 --> 00:50:02,689
Mom!
741
00:50:03,363 --> 00:50:06,769
Oh my god, Mom, check this out.
It just went up. It's everywhere.
742
00:50:07,888 --> 00:50:08,688
Gary!
743
00:50:08,769 --> 00:50:09,896
For the better part of a decade,
744
00:50:09,970 --> 00:50:12,704
a San Francisco Bay-area
drug ring sold tons of cocaine...
745
00:50:12,773 --> 00:50:16,023
to the Crips and Bloods street gangs of
Los Angeles and funneled millions...
746
00:50:16,096 --> 00:50:18,625
in drug profits to
Latin American guerrilla army run
747
00:50:18,779 --> 00:50:20,145
by the US Central Intelligence Agency...
748
00:50:20,260 --> 00:50:22,185
a Mercury news investigation has found.
749
00:50:22,262 --> 00:50:25,012
This drug network opened the first
pipeline between Columbia and...
750
00:50:38,198 --> 00:50:39,280
Hey.
751
00:50:40,961 --> 00:50:42,452
Hey.
752
00:50:43,323 --> 00:50:44,895
You did it.
753
00:50:46,206 --> 00:50:47,812
Yeah.
754
00:50:49,169 --> 00:50:51,173
Want to go fool around in the woods?
755
00:50:54,334 --> 00:50:55,134
Yeah.
756
00:50:55,175 --> 00:50:57,829
- Yes, I do.
- Yes, I do.
757
00:50:59,139 --> 00:51:02,864
- Don't look, don't look.
- Hey, come on!
758
00:51:02,983 --> 00:51:06,308
You should see our switchboard!
It is lit up like a Christmas tree!
759
00:51:06,386 --> 00:51:08,428
We're getting calls
from all over the world. Gary.
760
00:51:08,469 --> 00:51:09,915
What do you want to do?
761
00:51:09,990 --> 00:51:12,473
Well, it's just the beginning,
isn't it?
762
00:51:12,593 --> 00:51:14,323
I think there's more to do.
763
00:51:14,434 --> 00:51:16,804
Got to keep riding out the story.
Keep digging.
764
00:51:16,877 --> 00:51:17,686
Anything you need.
765
00:51:17,838 --> 00:51:20,002
Okay? But take a victory lap.
766
00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:22,284
Hey, that graphic you guys used?
767
00:51:22,362 --> 00:51:24,936
The crack pipe on the CIA emblem?
768
00:51:25,125 --> 00:51:25,968
Are you out of your mind?
769
00:51:26,046 --> 00:51:27,971
It's like the CIA is cooking
crack in their basement.
770
00:51:28,048 --> 00:51:31,260
Gary. That was my idea,
so blame me, but come on.
771
00:51:31,331 --> 00:51:32,903
We got their attention, didn't we?
772
00:51:33,013 --> 00:51:35,336
We're just calling
to say thanks for doing this.
773
00:51:35,415 --> 00:51:39,903
- There is a lot of pride here this morning.
- Congratulations, buddy.
774
00:51:40,020 --> 00:51:41,352
Hey. Gary.
775
00:51:41,421 --> 00:51:42,788
Yeah?
776
00:51:42,983 --> 00:51:44,349
You did it.
777
00:51:44,465 --> 00:51:46,070
This is the big one.
778
00:51:46,507 --> 00:51:48,397
Enjoy yourself!
779
00:52:13,053 --> 00:52:16,424
Let's focus on the Washington Post,
New York Times and the LA Times.
780
00:52:16,537 --> 00:52:18,347
And get Richard Zuckerman on the phone.
781
00:52:30,390 --> 00:52:34,160
What interests me is who is gonna tell me
how we missed this goddamned story.
782
00:52:34,234 --> 00:52:36,000
How'd the San Jose Mercury News,
783
00:52:36,076 --> 00:52:38,923
a paper one-fifth the size
of the Los Angeles Times...
784
00:52:39,039 --> 00:52:40,930
and three hundred
miles away-scooped us...
785
00:52:41,041 --> 00:52:42,168
on one of the most
important stories in this city in,
786
00:52:42,242 --> 00:52:44,451
in what? Twenty years?
787
00:52:44,645 --> 00:52:46,854
How about you, Rich?
Didn't you cover Ricky Ross?
788
00:52:46,927 --> 00:52:48,579
- Parts of it.
- Yeah, apparently the wrong parts.
789
00:52:48,689 --> 00:52:50,170
We had Blandon in one of our stories.
790
00:52:50,250 --> 00:52:51,856
- As what?
- A government source.
791
00:52:51,932 --> 00:52:53,094
He's also apparently almost single-handedly
792
00:52:53,213 --> 00:52:54,944
responsible for the crack epidemic.
793
00:52:55,055 --> 00:52:56,468
Which, by the way, started right here...
794
00:52:56,577 --> 00:53:00,426
in Watts,
five fucking miles from where we're sitting.
795
00:53:01,462 --> 00:53:02,510
Look, I don't need to tell you this...
796
00:53:02,583 --> 00:53:06,672
but if this story stands,
some of your people are going to jail.
797
00:53:06,747 --> 00:53:09,195
The idea that any one person
could have played a decisive
798
00:53:09,269 --> 00:53:09,520
role in the crack epidemic...
799
00:53:09,590 --> 00:53:13,040
- ...is absurd.
- What about Norwin Meneses?
800
00:53:13,113 --> 00:53:13,603
We have no documentation...
801
00:53:13,674 --> 00:53:16,327
...that this guy ever
did any business with us.
802
00:53:16,436 --> 00:53:18,680
This Gary Webb, he's got nothing.
803
00:53:18,759 --> 00:53:21,686
He's got drug dealers and
money launderers as sources.
804
00:53:21,762 --> 00:53:23,812
Rich, you know this guy Webb.
What do you think?
805
00:53:23,964 --> 00:53:25,616
It's thin.
806
00:53:26,246 --> 00:53:29,618
Except that he posted all
his sources on the Merc website.
807
00:53:29,690 --> 00:53:31,535
- So?
- So nobody's done that before.
808
00:53:31,612 --> 00:53:34,824
I need every line of that story taken
apart and checked for inaccuracies.
809
00:53:34,975 --> 00:53:37,025
Get Dominic Brady
back here from Washington.
810
00:53:37,137 --> 00:53:39,120
I want at least 15
people on this thing.
811
00:53:39,146 --> 00:53:40,568
What if we're over reacting?
812
00:53:40,621 --> 00:53:42,431
I mean, it's the San Jose Mercury News.
813
00:53:42,503 --> 00:53:44,792
Is anyone even going to pay attention?
814
00:53:45,145 --> 00:53:48,311
A reporter for the
San Jose Mercury News suggested...
815
00:53:48,388 --> 00:53:50,997
that the CIA might have played a role...
816
00:53:51,071 --> 00:53:53,405
in permitting Nicaraguan
drug dealers to distribute...
817
00:53:53,433 --> 00:53:58,205
crack cocaine in south central
Los Angeles during the 1980's.
818
00:53:58,318 --> 00:54:02,647
That had enormous resonance within
the African-American community.
819
00:54:02,763 --> 00:54:06,567
We have been faked out,
we have been tricked,
820
00:54:06,647 --> 00:54:08,457
and we have been undermined.
821
00:54:08,529 --> 00:54:11,502
If they had put that crack
in Beverly Hills,
822
00:54:11,612 --> 00:54:13,742
it would be a presidential issue.
823
00:54:13,814 --> 00:54:17,026
We love our children.
Just like you love yours.
824
00:54:17,097 --> 00:54:19,546
I think it is enough information here...
825
00:54:19,660 --> 00:54:23,349
to say to the CIA,
you stand accused.
826
00:54:23,423 --> 00:54:26,988
President Clinton will be back out
on the campaign trail next week -
827
00:54:29,550 --> 00:54:31,280
I've got...
828
00:54:31,351 --> 00:54:35,201
requests for you from CNN, CNBC...
829
00:54:35,315 --> 00:54:39,723
Jerry Springer,
Geraldo Rivera and Montel Williams.
830
00:54:40,120 --> 00:54:42,745
The London Times and Le Monde
are sending in to interview you...
831
00:54:42,843 --> 00:54:46,214
and Sixty Minutes
and Dateline both want you, but
832
00:54:46,286 --> 00:54:47,745
only if you don't do the other one.
833
00:54:47,848 --> 00:54:50,376
And I just got the call last night...
834
00:54:50,851 --> 00:54:54,415
the National Press
Association Journalist of the Year...
835
00:54:54,535 --> 00:54:56,539
is Mr. Gary Webb.
836
00:54:56,657 --> 00:54:58,069
Congratulations. Gary.
837
00:55:03,263 --> 00:55:05,872
On, baby!
838
00:55:09,229 --> 00:55:09,833
Thank you.
839
00:55:09,910 --> 00:55:11,596
Life's beautiful.
840
00:55:18,759 --> 00:55:21,925
It's checking out Richard.
I spoke with the banker in Panama City.
841
00:55:22,082 --> 00:55:25,568
His name is Hans Jorg Baier.
He met with Webb. He confirmed...
842
00:55:25,686 --> 00:55:28,009
he laundered drug money for the Contras.
843
00:55:28,088 --> 00:55:29,899
Norwin Meneses was his client.
844
00:55:30,050 --> 00:55:32,419
Are these sources reliable enough?
For the Post?
845
00:55:32,493 --> 00:55:34,258
I mean, they're all drug dealers.
846
00:55:34,374 --> 00:55:36,140
The banker isn't a drug dealer.
847
00:55:36,256 --> 00:55:40,185
Also, there's this American ex-pat that had
a ranch in the jungle for thirty years.
848
00:55:40,260 --> 00:55:44,030
And he let these two American pilots
land and take off from his airstrip.
849
00:55:44,104 --> 00:55:47,111
And, he let them store
dope on his property.
850
00:55:47,187 --> 00:55:49,229
You're talking to drug
dealers and money launderers.
851
00:55:49,269 --> 00:55:51,160
I'm talking to Langley.
852
00:55:51,271 --> 00:55:52,398
Well, I'm filing.
853
00:55:52,473 --> 00:55:54,442
You guys do whatever you want with it.
854
00:55:59,119 --> 00:56:00,451
So what's our point of view?
855
00:56:00,561 --> 00:56:03,043
That Webb doesn't have any
legitimate sources...
856
00:56:03,283 --> 00:56:06,609
That the CIA would never use these
low-lifes and in fact denies it,
857
00:56:06,727 --> 00:56:08,061
in fact denies it unequivocally.
858
00:56:08,128 --> 00:56:11,135
That basically, he's a
fraud and so is his story.
859
00:56:14,094 --> 00:56:16,464
I'll take that upstairs
and see if it'll fly.
860
00:56:19,459 --> 00:56:21,783
Yeah, you're going to turn into a chip.
861
00:56:21,902 --> 00:56:23,268
Hey, wait you guys, it's on.
862
00:56:23,343 --> 00:56:24,949
Come here, it's on.
863
00:56:25,105 --> 00:56:27,998
In tonight's Eye on America,
accusations...
864
00:56:28,148 --> 00:56:30,802
underscore the word
accusations” that are nothing...
865
00:56:30,871 --> 00:56:33,353
short of explosive.
hat the CIA...
866
00:56:33,474 --> 00:56:38,883
knowingly and intentionally did what amounts
to pump crack cocaine into Los Angeles...
867
00:56:38,959 --> 00:56:39,882
That's not what he said.
868
00:56:39,960 --> 00:56:41,487
...to help fund rebels in Nicaragua.
869
00:56:41,602 --> 00:56:42,729
You never said “intentionally.”
870
00:56:42,803 --> 00:56:45,969
Whether or not these claims prove true,
they anger they...
871
00:56:52,092 --> 00:56:53,619
A lot of people are saying...
872
00:56:53,694 --> 00:56:55,903
of course,
including people in Congress...
873
00:56:55,976 --> 00:57:01,705
that the CIA intentionally addicted
African Americans to crack cocaine.
874
00:57:01,822 --> 00:57:05,272
Right. Well, what you and others are
doing is putting words in my mouth.
875
00:57:05,345 --> 00:57:06,553
We never made that claim.
876
00:57:06,667 --> 00:57:10,277
What have you got to prove that
Americans working in the US government...
877
00:57:10,350 --> 00:57:12,799
collaborated in selling
crack cocaine into the
878
00:57:12,873 --> 00:57:15,607
African American community of Los Angeles?
879
00:57:15,676 --> 00:57:18,842
Well, first of all, we never
said that Americans working
880
00:57:18,919 --> 00:57:20,280
in the government were doing this.
881
00:57:20,320 --> 00:57:22,929
These were Nicaraguans
working for the CIA-run army.
882
00:57:23,003 --> 00:57:26,055
Okay. It's not CIA-U.S. officials.
883
00:57:26,206 --> 00:57:27,288
Not that we know so far.
884
00:57:27,367 --> 00:57:29,292
Okay. It's not U.S. officials.
Okay. Go ahead.
885
00:57:29,369 --> 00:57:33,936
What the CIA wanted to do was to fight
a war that Congress didn't want.
886
00:57:34,014 --> 00:57:35,223
And the ripple effect of that
887
00:57:35,335 --> 00:57:37,146
- what happened in south Los Angeles
and other American cities
888
00:57:37,217 --> 00:57:38,823
- well that was a mistake.
889
00:57:38,899 --> 00:57:40,983
This is a smoking cannon...
890
00:57:41,061 --> 00:57:44,386
that leads all the
way to the White House.
891
00:57:44,785 --> 00:57:46,231
We have no evidence...
892
00:57:46,306 --> 00:57:48,072
of a conspiracy by the CIA...
893
00:57:48,228 --> 00:57:50,882
to engage in encouraging
drug traffickers in Nicaragua...
894
00:57:50,991 --> 00:57:52,882
I am going to make somebody...
895
00:57:52,993 --> 00:57:57,845
pay for what they have done
to my community and to my people.
896
00:57:57,918 --> 00:57:59,684
Don't give me the conspiracy bull -
897
00:57:59,760 --> 00:58:04,292
There has never been
a conspiracy in this country.
898
00:58:26,947 --> 00:58:28,109
Senior Baier...
899
00:58:44,605 --> 00:58:45,607
Hello?
900
00:58:45,686 --> 00:58:47,451
It's Fred Weil.
901
00:58:49,770 --> 00:58:51,900
You haven't seen the east coast papers yet?
902
00:58:52,893 --> 00:58:54,100
No.
903
00:58:55,135 --> 00:58:56,901
It's 4 AM.
904
00:59:01,902 --> 00:59:03,986
I was you once. Gary,
905
00:59:04,785 --> 00:59:09,351
I started down this road.
Though nowhere near as far as you are.
906
00:59:10,531 --> 00:59:11,331
When they saw...
907
00:59:11,371 --> 00:59:14,503
I wasn't gonna stop,
they 'controversialized' me.
908
00:59:18,038 --> 00:59:20,042
Do you have any idea
what I'm talking about?
909
00:59:23,123 --> 00:59:25,446
They make you the story.
910
00:59:26,927 --> 00:59:32,257
And you have a history of schizophrenia,
you're a liar, you're a homo...
911
00:59:32,332 --> 00:59:34,257
you beat your dog...
912
00:59:34,495 --> 00:59:35,018
you're a pedophile -
913
00:59:35,135 --> 00:59:37,139
it doesn't matter if none of it's true.
The point is...
914
00:59:37,257 --> 00:59:40,663
no one remembers what you found.
They remember you...
915
00:59:41,622 --> 00:59:43,467
and you're nuts.
916
00:59:43,904 --> 00:59:45,795
You cease to exist.
917
00:59:50,511 --> 00:59:52,162
You there?
918
00:59:53,914 --> 00:59:55,725
Yeah, I'm here.
919
00:59:55,836 --> 00:59:58,079
Remember, you get the most flak...
920
00:59:58,519 --> 01:00:01,127
when you're right above the target.
921
01:00:02,763 --> 01:00:04,680
That's when they empty
all their guns into you.
922
01:00:04,725 --> 01:00:08,289
When you're about
to drop a bomb on the on the Kremlin...
923
01:00:10,330 --> 01:00:13,064
Or in this case,
the Central Intelligence Agency.
924
01:00:16,617 --> 01:00:18,542
Hang in there. Gary.
925
01:00:46,687 --> 01:00:47,894
Morning.
926
01:00:53,774 --> 01:00:55,186
You guys don't look so good.
927
01:00:55,255 --> 01:00:56,256
Morning, Gary.
928
01:00:56,336 --> 01:00:57,703
Good morning.
929
01:00:57,938 --> 01:00:59,429
We just want to take your temperature,
you know, get
930
01:00:59,500 --> 01:01:01,823
your perspective before we weigh in here.
931
01:01:02,422 --> 01:01:03,471
About what?
932
01:01:03,584 --> 01:01:06,591
Well, the CIA's response to you for one.
933
01:01:06,707 --> 01:01:08,871
Well, there isn't one really, is there?
934
01:01:09,149 --> 01:01:10,436
Still nothing?
935
01:01:10,551 --> 01:01:12,555
Not a single source?
I mean...
936
01:01:12,633 --> 01:01:16,680
at this point, I'll take anybody who
takes home a check from the CIA. Anyone.
937
01:01:16,757 --> 01:01:18,362
They're a secretive organization,
938
01:01:18,438 --> 01:01:21,192
Jerry. I mean, that's what they do.
They're secretive. They don't talk.
939
01:01:21,201 --> 01:01:23,410
Well, at least the Washington
Post isn't saying we got
940
01:01:23,443 --> 01:01:24,366
all our facts wrong.
941
01:01:24,444 --> 01:01:25,607
Because they're not.
942
01:01:25,626 --> 01:01:28,413
But what the Post is saying is that
we're just here to attest to the moral
943
01:01:28,489 --> 01:01:31,097
purity of the
Central Intelligence Agency.
944
01:01:31,171 --> 01:01:33,575
Gary, Walter Zuckerman is a living legend.
945
01:01:33,654 --> 01:01:36,467
Yeah, who thinks his job
is to defend the CIA.
946
01:01:36,577 --> 01:01:37,659
He used to work for them.
947
01:01:37,778 --> 01:01:40,785
He was a media intern for
god's sakes. Am I crazy?
948
01:01:40,861 --> 01:01:43,470
I mean reading this stuff
is like reading Pravda circa 1953,
949
01:01:43,544 --> 01:01:45,309
you guys. I mean,
what am I missing here?
950
01:01:45,466 --> 01:01:49,235
Gary, cards on the table.
We got a call from Corporate this morning.
951
01:01:49,309 --> 01:01:50,671
They are getting a little nervous.
952
01:01:50,711 --> 01:01:52,920
And so we're just going to take a beat,
step back,
953
01:01:52,993 --> 01:01:55,043
look at the big picture
on behalf of the paper.
954
01:01:55,115 --> 01:01:58,008
We don't want to print anything else
until we get our ducks in a row, ok?
955
01:01:58,118 --> 01:01:59,804
And we're keeping you in the loop.
956
01:02:00,481 --> 01:02:02,645
No big deal
957
01:02:02,723 --> 01:02:05,046
- Gary, can I talk to you for a second?
- Yeah.
958
01:02:21,542 --> 01:02:22,908
I just got a call.
959
01:02:23,023 --> 01:02:25,950
NBC's canceling their segment on the
story. They're not gonna run it.
960
01:02:26,026 --> 01:02:27,712
And you're not going to believe this,
but we've heard
961
01:02:27,828 --> 01:02:29,480
the Washington Post is going
to say you're an active
962
01:02:29,550 --> 01:02:31,360
part of Ricky Ross' defense...
963
01:02:31,512 --> 01:02:33,197
that your involvement verges
on complicity and that
964
01:02:33,313 --> 01:02:36,240
you and Ricky Ross are telling
this fairy tale together.
965
01:02:36,997 --> 01:02:38,808
- It's not funny.
- Come on.
966
01:02:38,879 --> 01:02:41,202
- It's funny.
- No, our careers could be on the line.
967
01:02:41,321 --> 01:02:43,405
Look, we drew blood.
They're going to say anything.
968
01:02:43,524 --> 01:02:44,890
Would you?
969
01:02:45,606 --> 01:02:46,813
What?
970
01:02:48,168 --> 01:02:50,457
I'm sorry. I didn't mean that.
971
01:02:50,851 --> 01:02:52,217
You think I'd make some shit up?
972
01:02:52,332 --> 01:02:53,859
No.
973
01:02:54,535 --> 01:02:56,379
- You're my editor.
- I know.
974
01:02:57,137 --> 01:03:00,223
It's my name on this story but it's
your name on that damn door.
975
01:03:00,741 --> 01:03:02,346
Don't forget that.
976
01:03:02,663 --> 01:03:04,234
Right there.
977
01:03:11,231 --> 01:03:12,644
It's Rich Kline.
978
01:03:13,193 --> 01:03:14,685
It's Gary Webb.
979
01:03:15,556 --> 01:03:17,047
Really?
980
01:03:17,798 --> 01:03:19,848
Ok.
981
01:03:22,042 --> 01:03:23,408
Hello?
982
01:03:23,564 --> 01:03:25,249
What's happening here, Rich?
983
01:03:26,366 --> 01:03:28,576
The only people you have in your story...
984
01:03:28,649 --> 01:03:30,220
is the former Director of the CIA,
985
01:03:30,330 --> 01:03:32,654
the current Director
of the CIA and - guess who -
986
01:03:32,733 --> 01:03:35,022
a bunch of CIA officials.
987
01:03:35,415 --> 01:03:37,181
Are you following up on anything
I wrote or are you
988
01:03:37,257 --> 01:03:38,670
just talking to the CIA?
989
01:03:38,739 --> 01:03:40,265
I can't be talking to you.
990
01:03:41,181 --> 01:03:42,514
Why?
991
01:03:43,944 --> 01:03:45,630
I don't know. I'm sorry.
992
01:03:50,591 --> 01:03:52,641
Son of a bitch.
993
01:04:47,648 --> 01:04:49,139
What the fuck.
994
01:05:35,736 --> 01:05:36,863
Hey!
995
01:05:41,862 --> 01:05:43,353
What the hell you doing?
996
01:05:49,470 --> 01:05:50,961
I can see you!
997
01:06:16,056 --> 01:06:17,422
Son of a bitch
998
01:06:20,501 --> 01:06:21,788
Son of a bitch!
999
01:06:21,902 --> 01:06:23,827
I saw him and I chased
him down the goddamned street.
1000
01:06:23,904 --> 01:06:25,908
Ok, so then you tried to shoot the guy.
1001
01:06:26,386 --> 01:06:28,117
I fired a warning shot.
1002
01:06:28,469 --> 01:06:29,915
I have a family to protect.
1003
01:06:30,030 --> 01:06:31,032
Did he try to break in?
1004
01:06:31,111 --> 01:06:34,915
No. He was at the back of my car.
He wasn't trying to steal it.
1005
01:06:35,075 --> 01:06:37,444
I don't know what the hell he was
doing but he was there.
1006
01:06:37,558 --> 01:06:40,245
See his fingerprints or some shit.
1007
01:06:40,320 --> 01:06:43,054
He was messing with it,
I don't know what he was doing.
1008
01:06:52,613 --> 01:06:54,025
What are you doing?
1009
01:06:55,135 --> 01:06:58,028
Do you have any reason to believe
your family's in danger, Mr. Webb?
1010
01:07:01,341 --> 01:07:02,583
No.
1011
01:07:03,864 --> 01:07:05,390
No.
1012
01:07:06,587 --> 01:07:07,714
Dad!
1013
01:07:07,788 --> 01:07:08,789
What is that?
1014
01:07:09,309 --> 01:07:10,517
That's Ian.
1015
01:07:11,792 --> 01:07:13,084
You can't - put that shit down.
1016
01:07:13,153 --> 01:07:14,600
Hey dad! Dad!
1017
01:07:14,755 --> 01:07:17,630
All these people just came down and
are looking through all your shit!
1018
01:07:18,318 --> 01:07:19,890
Can I help you?
1019
01:07:20,120 --> 01:07:20,883
You can't be in here.
1020
01:07:20,961 --> 01:07:22,878
- It's a crime scene.
- It's not a crime scene.
1021
01:07:23,764 --> 01:07:26,771
Excuse me, this is my house
- what are you doing?
1022
01:07:26,847 --> 01:07:28,772
Who the fuck are you?
1023
01:07:28,849 --> 01:07:31,776
Hey, will you put this down?
This is my shit! This is my house!
1024
01:07:31,852 --> 01:07:33,822
Get the fuck out!
1025
01:07:33,894 --> 01:07:35,385
Get the fuck out of here!
1026
01:07:43,103 --> 01:07:45,996
Ian, anybody comes down here,
hit them with that.
1027
01:07:56,076 --> 01:07:57,523
I see you!
1028
01:08:09,650 --> 01:08:12,172
I know you had a hard night
last night but I need to warn you...
1029
01:08:12,212 --> 01:08:14,379
before you come into work
tomorrow that the next week
1030
01:08:14,495 --> 01:08:17,341
or so is going to be rough.
1031
01:08:18,859 --> 01:08:20,989
Now Dateline thinks you lied to
them so they're coming after you.
1032
01:08:21,061 --> 01:08:23,590
And so is Nightline,
1033
01:08:23,664 --> 01:08:26,033
and every other major that
hasn't had their shot yet.
1034
01:08:28,669 --> 01:08:30,320
Well, the story's tight.
1035
01:08:30,791 --> 01:08:32,442
It's not perfect.
1036
01:08:32,513 --> 01:08:35,359
Well, Jerry put the brakes on.
I need to keep going.
1037
01:08:35,676 --> 01:08:37,680
I'm not done, Anna.
1038
01:08:37,838 --> 01:08:40,685
And I need you to protect me so
I can finish what we started.
1039
01:08:41,041 --> 01:08:43,205
It's not the story now.
1040
01:08:43,443 --> 01:08:45,209
This is about you.
1041
01:08:45,445 --> 01:08:48,209
The New York Times gave us a courtesy call.
They went into everything.
1042
01:08:48,248 --> 01:08:50,298
Every closet and corner of your life.
1043
01:08:50,370 --> 01:08:54,619
Every speeding ticket, every bar fight,
every libel suit
1044
01:08:54,695 --> 01:08:56,061
That's gossip, that's not news.
1045
01:08:56,176 --> 01:08:57,064
And now Jerry's talking
about you working out of the
1046
01:08:57,137 --> 01:08:58,709
Cupertino office for a while.
1047
01:08:58,859 --> 01:09:01,307
Jerry's out of his mind.
That's not happening.
1048
01:09:01,381 --> 01:09:03,226
Hey bud, come on in.
1049
01:09:03,464 --> 01:09:05,274
That's not a good idea.
1050
01:09:06,386 --> 01:09:07,992
Ian, go to your room.
1051
01:09:17,998 --> 01:09:19,525
What is this?
1052
01:09:19,840 --> 01:09:22,004
They found out about that woman?
1053
01:09:26,286 --> 01:09:29,054
The woman in Cleveland,
at the Plain Dealer.
1054
01:09:29,129 --> 01:09:30,656
Yeah? And?
1055
01:09:32,893 --> 01:09:35,057
Why didn't you tell us the whole story?
1056
01:09:39,259 --> 01:09:41,583
What the fuck.
1057
01:09:41,862 --> 01:09:46,349
Look, who I do or what the fuck I do in my life
is not your concern, you understand that?
1058
01:09:46,426 --> 01:09:48,909
- This is between my wife and I, god -
- Excuse me.
1059
01:09:51,752 --> 01:09:55,202
It's between my wife and I,
goddammit it's not your fucking concern.
1060
01:09:56,396 --> 01:10:00,486
You can take any man's life,
put in under a microscope.
1061
01:10:00,601 --> 01:10:03,653
You can dissect it, turn a simple
man's life into a circus sideshow,
1062
01:10:03,764 --> 01:10:05,335
you know that.
1063
01:10:07,688 --> 01:10:09,293
What about the rest of me?
1064
01:10:09,610 --> 01:10:11,614
Can we focus on that?
1065
01:10:25,105 --> 01:10:26,757
Dad, what happened in Cleveland?
1066
01:10:37,117 --> 01:10:38,279
Come on.
1067
01:10:44,404 --> 01:10:47,331
There's no such thing as
a little mistake, Ian.
1068
01:10:48,368 --> 01:10:50,817
One wrong turn and you're lost.
1069
01:10:51,532 --> 01:10:54,857
- Keep turning trying to get back-
- You sound like a writer, writing.
1070
01:10:55,496 --> 01:10:58,422
I'm asking my father
what happened in Cleveland.
1071
01:11:03,864 --> 01:11:05,355
I screwed up.
1072
01:11:10,591 --> 01:11:12,082
Who was it?
1073
01:11:15,275 --> 01:11:17,120
A reporter in the newsroom.
1074
01:11:19,520 --> 01:11:21,250
What was her name?
1075
01:11:23,564 --> 01:11:26,456
- Why does that matter?
- It matters to me.
1076
01:11:31,291 --> 01:11:32,863
Barbara.
1077
01:11:36,697 --> 01:11:38,463
Did you love her?
1078
01:11:39,500 --> 01:11:41,071
No.
1079
01:11:41,542 --> 01:11:43,272
Do you love mom?
1080
01:11:43,904 --> 01:11:45,829
I love your mother.
1081
01:11:46,066 --> 01:11:50,554
You, your brother, your sister,
your mother...
1082
01:11:51,712 --> 01:11:54,399
You're everything to me.
You're all I got.
1083
01:11:55,716 --> 01:11:57,766
I couldn't stand losing that.
1084
01:11:59,480 --> 01:12:01,210
What happened to her?
1085
01:12:09,650 --> 01:12:11,575
She committed suicide.
1086
01:12:18,859 --> 01:12:20,350
That's really shitty.
1087
01:12:21,021 --> 01:12:23,105
Yeah it was.
1088
01:12:23,584 --> 01:12:25,714
Is that why we left Ohio?
1089
01:12:26,306 --> 01:12:27,912
Because you ran away?
1090
01:12:28,589 --> 01:12:31,071
Yeah, we needed a fresh start.
1091
01:12:33,113 --> 01:12:35,767
God, I'm really disappointed in you.
1092
01:12:40,400 --> 01:12:41,927
Mom's amazing.
1093
01:13:13,474 --> 01:13:15,956
We don't have a choice, Gary.
This is the only option
1094
01:13:16,116 --> 01:13:17,802
on the table right now.
1095
01:13:17,918 --> 01:13:19,922
Good for you to get out
of the line of fire for a beat.
1096
01:13:20,000 --> 01:13:23,975
You can cool off, pop out
some easy human interest stuff.
1097
01:13:45,466 --> 01:13:47,276
Dad, what's in Cupertino?
1098
01:13:47,347 --> 01:13:49,272
It's the paper's bureau for losers.
1099
01:13:51,351 --> 01:13:52,878
Where I won't get in trouble.
1100
01:13:53,474 --> 01:13:54,840
Or so they think.
1101
01:13:55,836 --> 01:13:58,000
Maybe just don't go, Daddy.
1102
01:13:59,640 --> 01:14:03,933
I know. But honey, Daddy's
got to go to work.
1103
01:14:04,004 --> 01:14:06,054
We've got the house to pay for
and all these school clothes.
1104
01:14:06,206 --> 01:14:08,176
You guys are growing like weeds.
1105
01:14:10,050 --> 01:14:11,382
Look after them.
1106
01:14:12,853 --> 01:14:14,379
You guys be good.
1107
01:14:16,857 --> 01:14:19,670
Photos. Your old records.
1108
01:14:20,981 --> 01:14:23,429
- Some of Christine's drawings.
- Ok.
1109
01:14:24,264 --> 01:14:25,950
That kind of thing.
1110
01:14:26,467 --> 01:14:27,879
I hate this.
1111
01:14:27,948 --> 01:14:29,439
I know.
1112
01:14:32,673 --> 01:14:34,278
I don't want to be alone.
1113
01:14:36,797 --> 01:14:38,927
I'm no good at it, you know that.
1114
01:14:41,321 --> 01:14:43,804
Maybe some time apart will be a good thing.
1115
01:14:47,568 --> 01:14:49,378
Well, it's got to be.
1116
01:14:56,657 --> 01:14:57,784
Ok.
1117
01:14:59,059 --> 01:14:59,902
I love you, daddy.
1118
01:14:59,980 --> 01:15:01,950
- Bye.
- Love you too.
1119
01:15:03,383 --> 01:15:05,274
Love you, daddy!
1120
01:15:57,478 --> 01:15:59,960
I was told that the
Police Department is having trouble
1121
01:16:00,040 --> 01:16:02,363
keeping the troopers' horses healthy...
1122
01:16:04,765 --> 01:16:08,136
Yeah, I hear it was bowel trouble?
1123
01:16:09,810 --> 01:16:11,301
Constipation.
1124
01:16:26,426 --> 01:16:28,926
I have you on record as working
in Nicaragua with John Cullen
1125
01:16:28,989 --> 01:16:31,119
and Barry Reid between '81 and '85.
1126
01:16:31,191 --> 01:16:33,925
Yeah, I worked with Reid,
but I don't know Cullen.
1127
01:16:33,994 --> 01:16:35,998
You got any contact info for Reid?
1128
01:16:36,076 --> 01:16:38,969
Last I heard he was in New Orleans.
I think he died though.
1129
01:16:39,039 --> 01:16:41,488
I'd like to review your flight logs.
Names of pilots-
1130
01:16:41,562 --> 01:16:43,088
I can't do that, Mr. Webb.
1131
01:16:43,163 --> 01:16:44,815
Is there anyone else I can speak to?
1132
01:16:44,885 --> 01:16:47,208
I don't know, maybe if you try back
in a week you can talk to my boss.
1133
01:16:47,367 --> 01:16:48,859
Is Cullen residing in Lake City?
1134
01:16:48,969 --> 01:16:51,703
Down in Florida maybe? Look,
I can't talk to you.
1135
01:17:33,854 --> 01:17:36,382
You didn't even open the box I gave you.
1136
01:17:37,377 --> 01:17:42,628
What? Oh honey, I can't open that.
1137
01:17:43,464 --> 01:17:44,830
You can't?
1138
01:17:44,905 --> 01:17:46,636
Look, I gotta focus.
1139
01:17:46,747 --> 01:17:49,720
You understand? I gotta focus
so I can finish this thing.
1140
01:17:52,673 --> 01:17:54,244
And then what happens?
1141
01:17:55,596 --> 01:17:57,247
Then it's done.
1142
01:17:57,798 --> 01:17:59,403
And then what?
1143
01:18:02,282 --> 01:18:06,291
Then what? What? I didn't choose
what's happening here, Sue.
1144
01:18:07,447 --> 01:18:10,101
I didn't choose this.
I don't want to fucking be here in
1145
01:18:10,170 --> 01:18:13,017
this shitbox. Away from home.
1146
01:18:13,253 --> 01:18:16,260
Come on. What is this?
1147
01:18:16,617 --> 01:18:18,268
What do you mean?
1148
01:18:18,699 --> 01:18:21,831
Can't you see what this
is doing to all of us?
1149
01:18:25,105 --> 01:18:26,871
That's not fair.
1150
01:18:27,988 --> 01:18:30,471
Look, you are who you always were, Gary.
1151
01:18:31,472 --> 01:18:33,522
No regret...
1152
01:18:33,674 --> 01:18:37,159
no blame, no judgment, it's just a fact.
1153
01:18:41,642 --> 01:18:43,965
I guess it's me who's changed.
1154
01:18:49,690 --> 01:18:51,455
What are you saying?
1155
01:18:58,298 --> 01:19:00,508
- What are you saying?
- I don't know.
1156
01:19:06,987 --> 01:19:08,514
You do know.
1157
01:19:14,835 --> 01:19:16,521
Say it!
1158
01:19:20,521 --> 01:19:22,251
I don't know.
1159
01:20:12,813 --> 01:20:14,579
Don't turn on the light.
1160
01:20:19,860 --> 01:20:21,705
I'm John Cullen.
1161
01:20:24,224 --> 01:20:25,910
Do you know that name?
1162
01:20:34,875 --> 01:20:39,407
What you found here, Gary, is a monster.
1163
01:21:10,951 --> 01:21:13,639
I was recruited by the Agency...
1164
01:21:14,835 --> 01:21:16,805
out of college.
1165
01:21:18,318 --> 01:21:20,972
I knew Spanish and Law...
1166
01:21:21,642 --> 01:21:24,011
and I wanted to do good.
1167
01:21:24,444 --> 01:21:27,371
I wanted to fight some evil empire.
1168
01:21:30,130 --> 01:21:32,704
I went to Central America.
1169
01:21:33,654 --> 01:21:36,501
Made nice with radicals.
1170
01:21:38,178 --> 01:21:40,627
Slept with some of the pretty ones.
1171
01:21:42,983 --> 01:21:45,113
And turned in names.
1172
01:21:47,988 --> 01:21:53,683
Then I started noticing
that they were disappearing.
1173
01:21:55,075 --> 01:21:56,886
Permanently.
1174
01:21:57,478 --> 01:21:59,847
The people that we hunted...
1175
01:22:00,641 --> 01:22:02,691
Murdered...
1176
01:22:03,884 --> 01:22:05,490
All they had...
1177
01:22:05,646 --> 01:22:11,340
was a deep desire to reform the
government and have free elections.
1178
01:22:13,694 --> 01:22:15,824
That's it.
1179
01:22:17,257 --> 01:22:18,624
After I left the Agency,
1180
01:22:18,699 --> 01:22:21,386
I worked my way
into a major drug cartel.
1181
01:22:21,502 --> 01:22:23,506
It was early Medellin.
1182
01:22:24,745 --> 01:22:27,479
I solved logistical issues.
1183
01:22:27,988 --> 01:22:31,359
Bringing supply into the United States.
1184
01:22:32,032 --> 01:22:34,515
Paved the way, you might say...
1185
01:22:35,395 --> 01:22:39,165
as the traffic grew. And grew.
1186
01:22:39,640 --> 01:22:45,288
Well someone in Washington knows what
you do and is doing nothing to stop it.
1187
01:22:45,365 --> 01:22:47,894
It's all lies and corruption, Gary.
1188
01:22:47,968 --> 01:22:51,818
You become attracted to the power,
then you become addicted to the power...
1189
01:22:51,892 --> 01:22:54,466
then you're devoured by the power.
1190
01:22:56,817 --> 01:23:01,429
Your thing and my thing,
are they connected?
1191
01:23:09,149 --> 01:23:10,801
Are they the same?
1192
01:23:18,158 --> 01:23:21,723
Yes. They are the same.
1193
01:23:28,969 --> 01:23:30,860
Danilo Blandon.
1194
01:23:36,256 --> 01:23:38,944
This is him. Yesterday.
1195
01:23:39,339 --> 01:23:41,788
This is you here. Today.
1196
01:23:42,543 --> 01:23:45,789
Nobody wants to hear your sad story,
Gary.
1197
01:23:48,068 --> 01:23:49,720
You can go on record.
1198
01:23:51,912 --> 01:23:53,962
And end up dead?
1199
01:23:55,155 --> 01:23:56,602
No.
1200
01:24:00,881 --> 01:24:02,452
Then why are you here?
1201
01:24:06,086 --> 01:24:07,452
I'm confessing.
1202
01:24:09,890 --> 01:24:11,656
Who else am I going to tell?
1203
01:24:29,309 --> 01:24:30,676
Anna?
1204
01:24:35,916 --> 01:24:37,157
Who is it?
1205
01:24:39,560 --> 01:24:40,926
It's Gary
1206
01:24:48,208 --> 01:24:49,575
It's six in the morning.
1207
01:24:49,650 --> 01:24:51,301
I found him. Or he found me.
1208
01:24:51,371 --> 01:24:53,023
- Who?
- The asset.
1209
01:24:53,093 --> 01:24:55,576
It's the piece I've been missing.
The only thing I didn't have.
1210
01:24:55,656 --> 01:24:58,788
It's what you kept asking for.
So I can keep going.
1211
01:24:59,099 --> 01:25:04,031
He was a part of the operation, Anna.
You understand that? CIA.
1212
01:25:05,906 --> 01:25:08,275
Look if I can just get him to go on record,
1213
01:25:08,348 --> 01:25:09,157
he'll confirm everything.
1214
01:25:09,229 --> 01:25:11,040
He came to my goddamned motel room.
1215
01:25:11,151 --> 01:25:12,392
- I'm not finished with it.
- You gotta talk to Jerry about this.
1216
01:25:12,513 --> 01:25:13,321
Calm down.
1217
01:25:13,393 --> 01:25:14,556
I'm not finished!
1218
01:25:14,675 --> 01:25:19,048
Look, I'm trying to keep you on the payroll,
ok? I'm trying to save your career.
1219
01:25:19,159 --> 01:25:22,849
I know I'm not just gonna sit back
and be quiet and do nothing
1220
01:25:22,923 --> 01:25:24,495
so I can collect your goddamn check.
1221
01:25:24,565 --> 01:25:26,170
- I understand.
- You know that. You know me.
1222
01:25:26,246 --> 01:25:27,488
I'm gonna keep going.
1223
01:25:27,568 --> 01:25:28,900
I'm gonna finish this.
1224
01:25:28,969 --> 01:25:31,896
For you.
Or I'm gonna do it for somebody else.
1225
01:25:32,893 --> 01:25:34,134
Look, there's a staff meeting tomorrow.
1226
01:25:34,214 --> 01:25:36,504
We'll talk about it there. OK?
1227
01:25:37,177 --> 01:25:38,544
OK.
1228
01:25:40,941 --> 01:25:42,866
OK.
1229
01:26:30,110 --> 01:26:31,557
Morning, Gary.
1230
01:26:34,194 --> 01:26:36,119
I wanted to run a couple
ideas past you guys.
1231
01:26:36,196 --> 01:26:37,927
About this asset, the CIA asset.
1232
01:26:37,998 --> 01:26:39,570
Gary, have a seat.
1233
01:26:46,406 --> 01:26:47,933
- Hey Pete.
- Hey.
1234
01:26:48,929 --> 01:26:50,455
When'd you get in from Washington?
1235
01:26:50,531 --> 01:26:53,457
No easy way to say this,
Gary so I'm just going to say it.
1236
01:26:54,294 --> 01:26:57,620
We've had Pete backtrack
a few of your leads.
1237
01:26:59,379 --> 01:27:00,826
Why didn't you tell me?
1238
01:27:00,981 --> 01:27:02,792
Well I'm telling you now.
1239
01:27:03,103 --> 01:27:03,946
Pete, why didn't you say anything?
1240
01:27:04,024 --> 01:27:07,589
We didn't like some of the some of the
stuff that Pete brought back, ok?
1241
01:27:07,668 --> 01:27:09,991
Some of your sources
have changed their stories.
1242
01:27:10,070 --> 01:27:11,152
Of course they did.
1243
01:27:11,231 --> 01:27:14,796
Well, they're saying they never said
the things you have them saying.
1244
01:27:14,955 --> 01:27:17,005
Well that's how they operate, Jerry.
1245
01:27:17,117 --> 01:27:18,803
- “They"?
- The Agency.
1246
01:27:18,919 --> 01:27:20,001
They deny everything.
1247
01:27:20,080 --> 01:27:22,814
Everyone who works with the CIA,
the CIA denies everything.
1248
01:27:22,923 --> 01:27:26,055
Did you ever get an actual
CIA operative on the record?
1249
01:27:26,487 --> 01:27:27,249
We never made that claim.
1250
01:27:27,327 --> 01:27:29,537
I think that's been
very clear at this point.
1251
01:27:29,650 --> 01:27:31,814
Did you not tell them about
the guy who came to my hotel room?
1252
01:27:31,932 --> 01:27:34,414
But he said he's not going
on the record, Gary.
1253
01:27:35,175 --> 01:27:37,020
- No. I think I made-
- Did you get anyone who works
1254
01:27:37,137 --> 01:27:39,507
for the CIA on the record?
1255
01:27:40,461 --> 01:27:41,463
Who is this guy?
1256
01:27:41,542 --> 01:27:42,350
Outside Counsel.
1257
01:27:42,463 --> 01:27:45,709
OK, let me catch you up
to speed here, counselor.
1258
01:27:45,826 --> 01:27:49,197
The CIA uses people who work for the CIA.
1259
01:27:49,269 --> 01:27:51,593
They also use people who work with the CIA.
1260
01:27:51,672 --> 01:27:52,481
You get the difference.
1261
01:27:52,553 --> 01:27:55,206
We don't operate in a
courtroom or in absolutes, Gary.
1262
01:27:55,275 --> 01:27:57,041
We operate in shades of grey.
1263
01:27:57,518 --> 01:27:59,522
I didn't realize truth
was a shade of grey.
1264
01:27:59,600 --> 01:28:00,044
Anyone else?
1265
01:28:00,160 --> 01:28:02,244
It's not what you can prove,
it's what people say they remember.
1266
01:28:02,362 --> 01:28:04,207
Your word against theirs.
1267
01:28:04,284 --> 01:28:06,858
Would have been wonderful to get a couple
of innocent people on the record.
1268
01:28:06,967 --> 01:28:09,449
Yeah, well nobody a part
of this story's innocent, Jerry.
1269
01:28:09,530 --> 01:28:11,420
You know, call Norwin Meneses.
1270
01:28:11,612 --> 01:28:13,537
He's in Managua.
He's in a prison.
1271
01:28:13,614 --> 01:28:15,299
He was happy to speak
to me when I came down...
1272
01:28:15,375 --> 01:28:17,300
He said he never spoke to you.
1273
01:28:18,819 --> 01:28:20,505
You kidding me?
1274
01:28:21,782 --> 01:28:23,627
I was in Managua for three days,
you know this-
1275
01:28:23,704 --> 01:28:25,275
I know you were in Managua.
1276
01:28:25,385 --> 01:28:27,550
He said you never got
inside the prison.
1277
01:28:27,828 --> 01:28:29,035
He said he never saw you.
1278
01:28:29,109 --> 01:28:30,875
Well there were five hundred
other people who did.
1279
01:28:30,991 --> 01:28:32,882
Yeah, but can you prove it?
1280
01:28:34,555 --> 01:28:37,597
What, you mean, like did I bring home
a t-shirt from the prison gift shop?
1281
01:28:37,638 --> 01:28:40,724
Do you have any proof you were
actually inside that prison?
1282
01:28:40,881 --> 01:28:42,088
I bribed my way in.
1283
01:28:42,162 --> 01:28:42,573
For Christ's sake.
1284
01:28:42,643 --> 01:28:45,809
It's a third world country.
What did you expect me to do?
1285
01:28:45,886 --> 01:28:46,888
What about all my notes?
1286
01:28:47,047 --> 01:28:50,020
Legally, they're just your notes.
All it means is you wrote them.
1287
01:28:50,090 --> 01:28:51,582
You could have made them up later.
1288
01:28:51,652 --> 01:28:53,257
- Fuck you.
- Easy Gary.
1289
01:28:53,373 --> 01:28:54,661
Fuck you both.
1290
01:28:54,735 --> 01:28:56,466
You questioning my ethics?
1291
01:28:56,777 --> 01:28:59,670
Thinking I'd re-engineer a goddam thing.
1292
01:29:00,060 --> 01:29:01,826
- How fucking dare you!
- Calm down.
1293
01:29:01,902 --> 01:29:05,193
What about this Swiss banker? Baier?
1294
01:29:05,385 --> 01:29:07,071
Yeah, what about him?
1295
01:29:07,147 --> 01:29:08,594
- I can't find him.
- We're going to have to
1296
01:29:08,669 --> 01:29:09,753
look a little harder then.
1297
01:29:09,830 --> 01:29:11,321
No one's heard from him, Gary.
1298
01:29:11,431 --> 01:29:14,278
This is crazy. This is nuts.
1299
01:29:14,635 --> 01:29:17,518
The CIA can't take a piss without
getting their dicks caught in their fly
1300
01:29:17,558 --> 01:29:19,267
but they're absolutely fantastic at this.
1301
01:29:19,319 --> 01:29:21,861
I mean, look at you guys.
You're looking at me like I'm crazy.
1302
01:29:21,922 --> 01:29:22,731
Like I'm lying.
1303
01:29:22,803 --> 01:29:24,489
- This is-
- That's what you're doing!
1304
01:29:24,605 --> 01:29:25,607
Nobody's saying that.
1305
01:29:25,686 --> 01:29:27,816
- This is not personal. Do not-
- How is this not personal?
1306
01:29:27,928 --> 01:29:33,144
Look, we got into this together,
so we're going to get out of it together.
1307
01:29:37,938 --> 01:29:39,988
How are we going to get out of it?
1308
01:29:40,461 --> 01:29:43,353
We are going to print an open letter...
1309
01:29:43,464 --> 01:29:44,830
saying that some mistakes were made.
1310
01:29:44,945 --> 01:29:46,472
Don't do that.
Don't do that.
1311
01:29:46,547 --> 01:29:48,597
Come on, there's a bigger
picture here, open your eyes.
1312
01:29:48,669 --> 01:29:50,434
My eyes are wide open.
Know what I see?
1313
01:29:50,511 --> 01:29:53,357
I see a bunch of people who are
worried about their reputations.
1314
01:29:53,474 --> 01:29:55,079
Terrified that the Post
or the Times aren't going to
1315
01:29:55,155 --> 01:29:57,604
pluck you from the foothills of San Jose...
1316
01:29:57,678 --> 01:29:59,408
and give you a job on the mountaintop.
1317
01:29:59,480 --> 01:30:02,726
You know Jerry, you print that letter,
you can't undo it.
1318
01:30:02,803 --> 01:30:09,135
Not ever. You become a paper that tells the
truth only when you fucking feel like it.
1319
01:30:11,131 --> 01:30:14,821
Some of the heavyweights of American
journalism have examined Webb's work...
1320
01:30:14,895 --> 01:30:18,027
and found it reckless, often wrong.
1321
01:30:18,178 --> 01:30:21,310
Just this week, Webb was
pulled off the CIA story...
1322
01:30:21,381 --> 01:30:23,864
after his own executive
editor admitted the articles...
1323
01:30:23,984 --> 01:30:27,230
oversimplified the origins
of the crack epidemic.
1324
01:30:27,347 --> 01:30:28,348
He also wrote,
1325
01:30:28,388 --> 01:30:33,035
“I feel that we did not have proof
that top CIA officials knew.”
1326
01:30:33,313 --> 01:30:36,719
Many Americans do seem willing
to believe that their own government...
1327
01:30:36,837 --> 01:30:39,001
could have been involved
in drug smuggling.
1328
01:30:39,159 --> 01:30:41,642
Despite the criticism of
Mr. Webb's work...
1329
01:30:41,722 --> 01:30:45,366
he is scheduled to receive the
Bay Area Journalist of the Year Award.
1330
01:30:45,486 --> 01:30:49,210
Some within the organization are
debating whether he is worthy of this-
1331
01:31:44,264 --> 01:31:47,032
Where the fuck's my bike?
Come on. Come on!
1332
01:31:48,669 --> 01:31:49,352
Hey, excuse me,
1333
01:31:49,429 --> 01:31:52,197
have you seen a bike that was here?
motorcycle?
1334
01:31:59,760 --> 01:32:03,210
Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!
1335
01:32:07,488 --> 01:32:08,979
God!
1336
01:32:13,774 --> 01:32:15,345
Come on.
1337
01:32:17,778 --> 01:32:19,669
What are you looking at?
1338
01:33:23,003 --> 01:33:24,734
- He's here!
- I see his car!
1339
01:33:24,845 --> 01:33:26,177
Daddy!
1340
01:33:26,406 --> 01:33:26,532
Dad!
1341
01:33:26,607 --> 01:33:28,657
Hey munchkins!
1342
01:33:30,370 --> 01:33:31,942
How are you?
How you doing?
1343
01:33:32,012 --> 01:33:36,180
Good to see you. How you doing, kiddo?
1344
01:33:36,296 --> 01:33:37,184
What happened to your hand?
1345
01:33:37,337 --> 01:33:39,946
That's just a little scratch.
It's nothing.
1346
01:33:40,020 --> 01:33:41,386
You ever coming home?
1347
01:33:41,462 --> 01:33:42,794
Working on it kiddo, we're working on it.
1348
01:33:42,863 --> 01:33:44,309
Mom! Dad's here!
1349
01:33:44,384 --> 01:33:45,876
Hi, chicken.
1350
01:33:50,551 --> 01:33:52,395
- Hey mom.
- Look at you.
1351
01:33:52,713 --> 01:33:54,204
Come on, Christine, let's go.
1352
01:33:56,957 --> 01:33:57,958
You look beautiful.
1353
01:33:59,439 --> 01:34:01,125
I look beautiful.
1354
01:34:02,122 --> 01:34:03,124
Come in.
1355
01:34:05,405 --> 01:34:06,568
What's this?
1356
01:34:06,647 --> 01:34:10,416
It's a long story.
It's nothing. It's boring.
1357
01:34:11,652 --> 01:34:12,653
Hi.
1358
01:34:14,374 --> 01:34:15,821
How you been?
1359
01:34:16,897 --> 01:34:19,631
Really good, considering.
1360
01:34:20,861 --> 01:34:24,027
I've decided to continue
writing on my own...
1361
01:34:25,345 --> 01:34:27,076
without the paper.
1362
01:34:29,470 --> 01:34:30,357
You're resigning?
1363
01:34:30,430 --> 01:34:31,922
Yeah.
1364
01:34:34,034 --> 01:34:35,765
- Well that's good.
- Yeah.
1365
01:34:35,836 --> 01:34:40,688
I mean, you know.
Walk away. Fresh start.
1366
01:34:41,602 --> 01:34:43,652
Make room for something new.
1367
01:34:44,084 --> 01:34:45,497
Yeah.
1368
01:34:47,768 --> 01:34:50,820
Thanks for coming with me.
It means a lot.
1369
01:34:50,931 --> 01:34:52,856
Tonight's going to be a good night.
1370
01:34:53,133 --> 01:34:54,260
Journalist of the Year
1371
01:34:54,414 --> 01:34:55,941
Yeah. You ready? You look ready.
1372
01:34:56,016 --> 01:34:58,146
- You guys behave.
- Love you guys.
1373
01:34:58,258 --> 01:34:59,864
Where's Ian?
1374
01:35:04,625 --> 01:35:06,595
No way.
1375
01:35:06,827 --> 01:35:08,991
No way.
1376
01:35:10,551 --> 01:35:11,758
What?
1377
01:35:13,393 --> 01:35:15,045
What?
1378
01:35:17,718 --> 01:35:18,800
This is great!
1379
01:35:18,919 --> 01:35:19,719
Yeah.
1380
01:35:19,800 --> 01:35:22,123
Oh man. Look at her.
1381
01:35:22,242 --> 01:35:24,246
You did it! You did it! You did it!
1382
01:35:24,324 --> 01:35:25,851
Thank you.
1383
01:35:26,967 --> 01:35:28,619
I'm so proud of you.
1384
01:35:28,929 --> 01:35:31,298
- Thank you.
- I'm super proud of you.
1385
01:35:31,852 --> 01:35:35,223
All right! Yes!
1386
01:35:37,097 --> 01:35:38,145
I'll follow you.
1387
01:35:38,258 --> 01:35:40,149
Yeah, don't drive too fast.
1388
01:35:41,502 --> 01:35:43,506
- Well what?
- We'll see.
1389
01:36:19,339 --> 01:36:20,547
Unbelievable!
1390
01:36:23,023 --> 01:36:24,515
Unbelievable.
1391
01:36:24,945 --> 01:36:26,311
Congratulations.
1392
01:36:28,869 --> 01:36:30,555
Congratulations, Gary! Good job!
1393
01:36:30,631 --> 01:36:32,761
Thank you, thank you.
1394
01:36:33,794 --> 01:36:35,639
Good to see you, good to see you.
1395
01:37:32,813 --> 01:37:38,667
My first story was about a dog that
should have died, but wouldn't.
1396
01:37:42,142 --> 01:37:43,143
I was twenty-two.
1397
01:37:43,223 --> 01:37:45,991
It was a stupid little feature,
but I was proud of it.
1398
01:37:46,106 --> 01:37:48,794
I put it in a frame
and hung it on my wall.
1399
01:37:50,991 --> 01:37:54,761
And believed I joined a secret
guild of reporters that day.
1400
01:37:55,756 --> 01:37:58,079
If there was ever a believer,
it was me.
1401
01:38:00,280 --> 01:38:04,813
My last story was about a police
horse in Cupertino, California...
1402
01:38:05,926 --> 01:38:08,056
who died of constipation.
1403
01:38:10,370 --> 01:38:12,944
Actually, it's not a joke.
1404
01:38:14,134 --> 01:38:17,266
But to begin with a dog
and end with a pile of horseshit...
1405
01:38:18,819 --> 01:38:21,826
there's a kind of poetry in there,
somewhere.
1406
01:38:27,668 --> 01:38:29,911
But this, this is horseshit.
1407
01:38:30,190 --> 01:38:32,433
Me being up here.
1408
01:38:32,873 --> 01:38:36,005
Look, I know I pissed off
a lot of people over the years.
1409
01:38:36,837 --> 01:38:39,650
Many of whom are
in this room right now.
1410
01:38:42,082 --> 01:38:45,009
But I think that's what good
investigative reporting does.
1411
01:38:45,085 --> 01:38:46,691
It ruffles feathers.
1412
01:38:48,248 --> 01:38:49,900
But I was never fired.
1413
01:38:50,130 --> 01:38:52,500
And my editors never
threw me under the bus.
1414
01:38:54,214 --> 01:38:57,187
And that's because I never
wrote anything until now...
1415
01:38:58,819 --> 01:39:02,828
that really mattered to a lot of people.
1416
01:39:03,984 --> 01:39:05,795
Mattered in a scary way.
1417
01:39:10,030 --> 01:39:11,761
I'm not going to take it back.
1418
01:39:12,352 --> 01:39:16,077
Make nice to save my job.
1419
01:39:17,718 --> 01:39:19,448
Because I thought my job...
1420
01:39:26,006 --> 01:39:27,418
Sorry.
1421
01:39:34,454 --> 01:39:37,381
I thought my job was
to tell the public the truth.
1422
01:39:37,898 --> 01:39:39,868
The facts, pretty or not.
1423
01:39:39,940 --> 01:39:42,309
And let the publishing of those facts...
1424
01:39:42,382 --> 01:39:44,273
make a difference...
1425
01:39:45,866 --> 01:39:47,200
in how people look at things.
1426
01:39:47,227 --> 01:39:49,391
At themselves,
at what they stand for.
1427
01:39:50,831 --> 01:39:52,483
That's shame on me.
1428
01:39:57,918 --> 01:40:00,400
This is the only thing
I ever wanted to do.
1429
01:40:06,927 --> 01:40:08,772
And for a while...
1430
01:40:11,411 --> 01:40:13,576
a long while, it was an honor.
1431
01:40:50,130 --> 01:40:55,939
Before we say goodnight,
there's one more item of business.
1432
01:41:06,507 --> 01:41:07,839
Hey dad.
1433
01:41:11,231 --> 01:41:13,201
Hey bud.
1434
01:41:13,754 --> 01:41:15,439
You ok?
1435
01:41:16,196 --> 01:41:18,360
I'm not sure.
1436
01:41:21,161 --> 01:41:23,052
Well, I'm really proud of you.
1437
01:41:31,892 --> 01:41:33,498
Thanks bud.
1438
01:41:40,300 --> 01:41:41,827
Listen.
1439
01:41:43,624 --> 01:41:47,029
I've done a lot of things
that I'm not proud of.
1440
01:41:50,270 --> 01:41:52,434
But I've never stopped loving you.
1441
01:41:53,914 --> 01:41:55,600
Not once.
1442
01:41:58,078 --> 01:41:59,684
I know.
1443
01:42:04,885 --> 01:42:06,935
- I need some air.
- Yeah.
1444
01:42:08,969 --> 01:42:10,735
Hey dad, don't go too far.
1445
01:42:39,079 --> 01:42:43,407
This town hall meeting allows the
South Central community to interact...
1446
01:42:43,484 --> 01:42:45,887
...with the director of Central intelligence.
1447
01:42:45,966 --> 01:42:50,294
Please join me in welcoming CIA Director,
John Deutch.
1448
01:43:03,343 --> 01:43:06,190
How are we supposed to trust...
1449
01:43:06,266 --> 01:43:10,640
the CIA officials to investigate themselves?
1450
01:43:10,751 --> 01:43:12,596
Is Gary Webb in the house
is the first thing I want to ask?
1451
01:43:12,673 --> 01:43:14,039
Is Gary Webb in here?
1452
01:43:14,434 --> 01:43:16,684
Gary Webb is the reporter
for the San Jose Mercury News
1453
01:43:16,757 --> 01:43:18,523
who broke the story wide open.
1454
01:43:18,599 --> 01:43:23,690
Allow Gary Webb to have full access to the
Investigator General's full documentation...
1455
01:43:23,764 --> 01:43:27,739
and comparatively go through
it as the investigation goes on.
1456
01:43:55,435 --> 01:43:58,328
There's no question
in my mind there is a complicity
1457
01:43:58,398 --> 01:44:00,289
in the flow of drugs into this country.
1458
01:44:00,360 --> 01:44:04,005
Same pilots, same airstrips,
same airplanes...
1459
01:44:04,124 --> 01:44:09,374
...carrying guns and drugs at the same time.
And people knew it.
1460
01:44:09,490 --> 01:44:12,975
South Central Los Angeles and
every other city in America...
1461
01:44:13,053 --> 01:44:15,601
...are owed an explanation.
