I think Gary's reporting also incriminated Bill Clinton. There was a little airport in Arkansas where they were landing the cocaine.

> Carl Bernstein, a famous American investigative journalist who unveiled the scandal in 1977, said that according to the plan, the CIA recruited journalists that were put on a payroll by the CIA and instructed to write "fake stories".

And Carl would know, of course, since his assigned partner Bob Woodward was a "recently retired" Military Intelligence guy who in his very first job in journalism just happened to be implanted on the biggest story of 1972 -- with the obvious goal of taking down the wildly popular President Richard Nixon.

Yea, see this is really wild. I just recently learned about that while listening to an interview with Dave Smith and Tucker Carlson. I thought Woodward was like a boots on the ground journalist. Turns out he's a pawn, just like the others. No wonder he gets so much access to the white house.
