The Killing Game

Gary Webb had an inborn journalistic tendency to track down corruption and expose it. For over thirty-four years, he wrote stories about corruption from county, state, and federal levels.

On March 16, 1998, the CIA's Inspector General, Fred Hitz, finally let?the cat out of the bag in an aside at a Congressional Hearing. Hitz told?the US Reps that the CIA had maintained relationships with companies and?individuals the Agency knew to be involved in the drug business.

With these two admisstions, Hitz definitively sank decades of CIA denials,?many of them under oath to Congress. Hitz's admissions also made fools of?some of the most prominent names in US journalism, and vindic...
