    A bio pic of an honest journalist who goes deep into the story he is trying to tell the public. But is the price he has to pay to high?

    If you think the government is covering up something your probably right. This movie deals with some of the biggest cover ups in Americas history. At least a known cover up and the movie is loosely based on facts too.

    This is a well done film of the backstory behind the flood of drugs that became the crack cocaine epdemic in the '80's. It sheds some real light on the CIA activites which allowed large quantities of drugs to cross the border to ultimately help fund the Contras.

    This may not be the best political thriller out there, but it certainly brings to light little known facts regarding the drug trade.

    Movie focuses on a journalist whose career was brought down by the U.S. government after he reported a true story about the government's involvement in selling drugs to fund the Iran-Contra scandal. Infuriating and keeps you interested.
