No. Gary Webb, the reporter from the San Jose Mercury News who first broke the story of CIA involvement in the cocaine trade, was found dead with "two gunshot wounds to the head." His death, in 2004, was ruled a suicide.
The first shot went through his face, and exited at his left cheek. The coroner's staff concluded that the second shot hit an artery.
Not quite the back of the head.

Ah, the meaning of my comment went straight over your head and you resort to throwing insults around.
I'll spell it out then: The fact that the first shot merely went through his mouth, from one cheek to the other makes it entirely possible, even probable, that Gary Webb commited suicide. Even his ex-wife said so:
Webb's ex-wife, Susan Bell, told reporters that she believed Webb had died by suicide.[72] "The way he was acting it would be hard for me to believe it was anything but suicide," she said. According to Bell, Webb had been unhappy for some time over his inability to get a job at another major newspaper. He had sold his house the week before his death because he was unable to afford the mortgage.
Spreading unfounded, exaggerated conspiracy theories while not even getting the facts straight isn't helping anyone but the perpetrators, especially when the CIA actually did commit some atrocious crimes that can be cited by stating facts instead of fiction.
The idea that someone trying to commit suicide would shoot themselves through the cheeks implies a truly staggering level of incompetence. The whole point of shooting yourself in the head is to have a quick and painless death. Shooting random holes in your body first is the opposite of that.
Pretty sure this meme refers to when someone finds the slightest, most irrelevant technicality so they can say you're wrong. You're just straight up incorrect here in a way that's directly applicable to the thread. There's nothing wrong with that, everyone gets shit wrong.
Did you just make that up?

Oh. I didn't realize you were talking about a completely different event.
