Ross rose to national infamy in 1996 after he featured prominently in investigative journalist Gary Webb’s “Dark Alliance” series, which unearthed the CIA’s involvement in drug dealing to help pay for the Contras.

Webb’s scoop would lead to his eventual professional undoing and suicide, now the subject of the movie “Kill the Messenger”, starring Jeremy Renner.
Tune in now to RadioWHO to hear straight from the mouth of a man at the center of one of the CIA’s murkiest operations yet.
