Based on the true story by journalist Gary Webb, Kill the Messenger recounts the story of this reporter who exposed the CIA’s role in importing cocaine into the U.S. in order to fuel the Nicaraguan Contra rebels in the mid 90s. Going public with the story, Webb was faced with a brutal CIA smear campaign. Written by Michael Cuesta, the film stars Jeremy Renner, Andy Garcia, Ray Liotta, Robert Patrick and Jena Sims.
