As U.S. and global markets implode, wiping out trillions in American retirement accounts, Fox is leading with this story. Do they have any real reporters left? Or are they all propagandists?

This Sunday, 60 Minutes' Bill Whitaker visits the U.S.-Mexico border at San Ysidro, between San Diego and Tijuana. Almost all the fentanyl entering the country is smuggled through ports of entry like this one, and many of those smugglers are American citizens.

Fentanyl has become the scourge of our nation. How did we get here, and what’s being done to save American lives? Our investigation with Bill Whitaker airs on 60 Minutes Sunday night. Please let everyone you know to tune in or watch online. app.frame.io/presentations/…?

Some happy news! After a rewarding 24-year-run at The Washington Post, I’m making a move to broadcast news, working on investigative projects with Bill Whitaker at 60 Minutes. If you have a solid story idea, please DM or contact me on Signal, highamscott.29

Honored to have worked with such incredible colleagues on CartelRx, recognized in the @PulitzerPrizes Public Service category for chronicling the government failures that helped accelerate fentanyl deaths in the worst drug crisis in America. washingtonpost.com/pr/2023/05/08/…

Heartbreaking.

My heart goes out to Bruce Willis and his family, & also my gratitude for shining a much needed light on this disease. When people step forward it helps all of us. When people get a diagnosis it’s extremely difficult, but also for most a relief to get a diagnosis.
