Watergate

Today is the 50th anniversary--50 years? My heavens--of the break-in at the Watergate complex.  The arrest of the burglars led, ultimately, to the 1974 resignation of President Nixon.

Earlier this month, Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, who, notably, covered the Watergate scandal for The Washington Post, published a "Perspective" piece, in the Post.  It is titled: "Woodward and Bernstein thought Nixon defined corruption. Then came Trump."
