Collapse

Michael Ruppert is the subject of a new movie called Collapse. For those that don't know about Mike, he is a former Los Angeles police narcotics and homicide detective, famous for confronting former CIA director John Deutch about CIA involvement in drug trafficking.
 
Mike Ruppert lost his job because he tried to tell the truth.
 
A few years later, Mike attempted to tell the world why we really are involved in Afghanistan and the rest of Eurasia and received an equally chilly reception.
 
Despite numerous postive reviews and the highest rating of any documentary film at the Toronto Film Festival (Collapse got an A, Michael Moore's latest got a C), you'll have to make a special effort to watch this film.
 
Mike also contributes to a blog from time to time.

Authentic journalism, for your viewing pleasure, (or displeasure if you prefer not to see and hear).
 
PS. Ruppert stood to confront director Deutch as a result of controversy surrounding Gary Webb's investigative journalism. To my knowlege, he was the only cop to do so publicly at the time.
 
He now faces similar circumstances to those Webb once endured: he is unemployable, battling to pay his rent, disregarded and even villified by mainstream media and government from the right and the left for trying to tell the truth.
 
In memory of Gary Webb, an article I came across on the web.
 
Last but not least, Roger Ebert's review of CoLLapse
