Sobre este artículo
New York: Seven Stories Press. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1998. First Printing. Hardcover. 1888363681 . Signed and inscribed by Gary Webb upon half-title page. "Shows how the L.A. crack market flourished through a breathtaking combination of government negligence, greed, and criminal conduct... Demonstrates that U.S. government agencies, including the CIA, DEA and FBI, were aware of the activities of this well-connected drug network and did little or nothing to stop it. Indeed, in several instances documented here, the Justice Department, the CIA, and the secret National Security Council unit run by Oliver North, took extraordinary steps to protect the ring from public exposure. In the final chapters Webb reveals the conflict that led to his newspaper's stunning repudiation of its own series - and at what cost he stood by his story." - dust jacket. xxviii, 548 pages.
