That's classified. How did you get it? Got it from a drug dealer. Perfect. Listen, I was...

Fred Weil: That's classified. How did you get it? Gary Webb: Got it from a drug dealer. Fred Weil: Perfect. Listen, I was John Kerry's lead investigator on the senate subcommittee that investigated this. You have no idea what you're getting into. Gary Webb: Why don't you tell me? Tell me what I'm getting into. Fred Weil: I'm on the National Security Council now. And I have the trust of the President and his cabinet. It took me ten years to get back to that place. Gary Webb: Your name goes nowhere near this. This conversation never happened. You have my word on that. Fred Weil: You ever done anything like this before? Gary Webb: No. Fred Weil: Has your paper? Gary Webb: Not that I'm aware of. Fred Weil: Some fancy information that you have there. And dangerous. I'd be remiss if I didn't tell you that other reporters have been down this rabbit hole. Seasoned reporters. Who knew their way around Washington. And Central America. Gary Webb: So what are you telling me? Fred Weil: I had an American citizen, a rich Republican Party fund-raiser, a White House favorite, in my office, upset about things he was hearing. He believed in freedom and defeating communism, but not in laundering narcotics money for guns. And he's sitting in my office in the US Senate, and he gets a phone call telling him that if he talked to me he'd die. This is your ticket out of small time, right? You're going to make your bones on this. Gary Webb: This is a true story. Fred Weil: My friend, some stories are just too true to tell. Gary Webb: That's bullshit. Fred Weil: Yeah? And yes, it is. Congratulations. You figured that out. Too true to tell...
