I went to see Kill The Messenger with some journalism friends tonight, because we all remember the story of Gary Webb and his Dark Alliance series for the San Jose Mercury News about the link between the CIA and the crack epidemic in America, and we have a lot of friends in common. Theres controversy over the conclusions of the movie, just as there was over his series, but its a very engrossing biopic, well written, great acting, we all enjoyed it. And, then, coming out of the movie, we ran into the writer! Nick Shou of the OC Weekly, who co-wrote the movie and whose book was one of the basis for the movie! We talked to him about it for half an hour or so. Very interesting to hear his feedback. You should invite him to speak to your group and see the movie.
