Peter Jennings, R.I.P.

Peter Jennings learned a lot about the drug war during his tenure with ABC and began to question many aspects of the war. He ended up hosting an outstanding expose of the government’s lies regarding MDMA. He discussed it with the press…

“Government is best when government is most honest, especially for the younger generation, which is more susceptible to trying drugs,” Jennings remarked to the Palm Beach Post. “If they can’t rely on the government for good and honest information, then government has lost something enormously valuable, which is people’s belief in the government’s credibility.”

“This was an opportunity for us to look at whether or not the government isn’t its own worst enemy in trying to control illegal drugs,” Jennings says.

Thanks, Peter.
