when reagan and bush sr were engaged in genocide in Central America, and when they had the CIA running cocaine into the U.S., reporters who covered this story were slammed by the mainstream media outlets, including Time and Newsweek.

However, with the release of govt documents in Central America since that time, it turns out that those people who reported these atrocities were telling the truth.

of course, Newsweek and Time never bothered to offer an apology or a retraction to, say, the reporter at the San Jose Mercury News whom they smeared.

Nor has Oliver North ever apologized for knowing of drug shipments to America while his bosses wife was telling everyone to "just say no."

The mainstream press has never bothered to inform the American people that Reagan's administration worked with Klaus Barbie, the butcher of Lyon, one of Hitler's henchmen, when Barbie was training a "new SS" to fight in Central America.

But all these things are true.
