Watergate

History Vs. The Movies: Watergate

Watergate Part Two

watergateWatergate was the largest and most frightening presidential scandal.  In this two-part multimedia presentation, we will look at the roots of the crime and Richard Nixon’s Administration’s desperate attempts to cover it up. Featured will be the process of unraveled by journalists, a judge, and Congress. We will examine Woodward and Bernstein’s role, as told in two films, in the efforts to uncover the truth. (Part One: Crime And Coverup. Part Two: Investigation and Aftermath.)

The worst Presidential scandal of all time is a tale of Presidentialvanity and venality, hubris, and pettiness. The discovery of the so-called “third rate burglary” unraveled a conspiracy of immense proportions to subvert the American Constitution. This fascinating multimedia presentation will see how the nation faced and survived its worst Constitutional crisis.
