Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The legacies of drug kingpins are both egregious and legendary. Through vast networks of mercenaries, corrupt officials, terrorists, and smugglers, organized drug cartels traffic billions of dollars in heroin, cocaine, MDMA, and methamphetamine across international borders. El Chapo, Pablo Escobar, Frank Lucas, Paul Le Roux, and other kingpins have left indelible marks on the communities they used for drug trafficking, and their far-reaching impact can take years to undo by even the most vigilant law enforcement efforts. This collection details the breadth of their crimes, and includes media literacy questions and terms that challenge readers to assess how journalistic principles are applied to news coverage of kingpins and narcotrafficking.

Book excerpt: Major Motion Picture based on Dark Alliance and starring Jeremy Renner, "Kill the Messenger," to be be released in Fall 2014 In August 1996, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Gary Webb stunned the world with a series of articles in the San Jose Mercury News reporting the results of his year-long investigation into the roots of the crack cocaine epidemic in America, specifically in Los Angeles. The series, titled “Dark Alliance,” revealed that for the better part of a decade, a Bay Area drug ring sold tons of cocaine to Los Angeles street gangs and funneled millions in drug profits to the CIA-backed Nicaraguan Contras. Gary Webb pushed his investigation even further in his book, Dark Alliance: The CIA, The Contras, and the Crack Cocaine Explosion. Drawing from then newly declassified documents, undercover DEA audio and videotapes that had never been publicly released, federal court testimony, and interviews, Webb demonstrates how our government knowingly allowed massive amounts of drugs and money to change hands at the expense of our communities. Webb’s own stranger-than-fiction experience is also woven into the book. His excoriation by the media—not because of any wrongdoing on his part, but by an insidious process of innuendo and suggestion that in effect blamed Webb for the implications of the story—had been all but predicted. Webb was warned off doing a CIA expose by a former Associated Press journalist who lost his job when, years before, he had stumbled onto the germ of the “Dark Alliance” story. And though Internal investigations by both the CIA and the Justice Department eventually vindicated Webb, he had by then been pushed out of the Mercury News and gone to work for the California State Legislature Task Force on Government Oversight. He died in 2004.

Download or read book Understanding Addiction written by Sadie Petersen and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2018-10-02 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding Addiction By: Sadie Petersen Understanding Addiction: Behind the Scenes isn’t going to be like that nagging uncle telling you to kick your son out on the streets. It’s not going to tell you what you should and shouldn’t do about your sister, grandson, daughter, mom, brother, or best friend’s addiction, either. It’s not going to hammer you with statistics and big words about addiction that make no sense, or stuff a bunch of scientific jargon down your throats. What author Sadie Petersen does provide you with is some REAL personal stories about her own life and experiences, real struggles addicts might be afraid to tell you themselves, and some REAL advice and “answers,” by giving you a look behind the scenes of drug addiction. This book is about helping you, and so many others like you, to take a deeper look inside drug addiction by providing a better understanding of this lifestyle through different perspectives, and to help you find the peace and understanding for which you might be searching. It is Petersen’s goal that, after reading her book, every reader will leave with the ability to think objectively and critically about the severity that comes with addiction, and learn how to apply their own behaviors in situations that may arise with their loved one’s addiction. Petersen hopes her audience WILL understand this lifestyle more clearly after reading her story and be able to apply it to their own lives to create improved outcomes for the long run. There are no RIGHT answers in dealing with drug addiction. But, with ten plus years of experience within this lifestyle, Petersen has found her peace with it, and she knows you can, too!
