When he exposed CIA, this incident was overshadowed by Clinton- Lewinsky scandal. The movie 'Kill the messenger' is about Gary Webb, his character is portrayed by Jeremy Renner. Respect for this man.

The movie is excellent, highly recommended. I think this might be Renner's best work, at the front of an incredible story.

This was my review of the movie.

The movie is a rare case of Hollywood actually getting history mostly right. I suspect that's why it didn't get wide promotional publicity.

In sharp contrast Tom Cruise's movie about Barry Seal is terribly inaccurate.
