So the writer and director of Parkland is Peter Landesman. Landesman is evidently the chap who wrote Kill The Messenger, the upcoming Gary Webb biopic that has the following IMDB quote attached:
"A reporter becomes the target of a vicious smear campaign that drives him to the point of suicide after he exposes the CIA's role in arming Contra rebels in Nicaragua and importing cocaine into California. Based on the true story of journalist Gary Webb."
Jeremy Renner, fresh from the one-two anti-establishment punch of The Hurt Locker and a Bourne movie, plays the journalist who decides to shoot himself in the head twice. I'm surprised they didn't pick Jason Alexander to co-star as Michael Ruppert.
