SUMMARY:History Vs. The Movies - Watergate Part One
DESCRIPTION:WATERGATE AT 50\nTwo-Part Presentation – Second Part Next Week!\n  \nWatergate was the largest and most frightening presidential scandal. In this two-part multimedia presentation\, we will look at the roots of the crime and the desperate attempts of the Nixon Administration to cover it up\, all of which were unraveled by journalists\, a judge\, and Congress. We will examine the role of Woodward and Bernstein\, as told in two films\, in the efforts to uncover the truth. (Part One: Crime and Coverup. Part Two: Investigation and Aftermath.) \nThe worst Presidential scandal of all time is a tale of vanity 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. In this fascinating multimedia presentation\, we will see how the nation faced and survived its worst Constitutional crisis. \nCOST \nI ask for a voluntary donation of $5.00.
