Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein were the two Washington Post reporters who played a crucial role in uncovering key elements of the Watergate scandal, which ultimately led to the resignation of President Richard Nixon. Their investigative reporting helped expose the political wrongdoing and cover-up that occurred during the 1972 break-in at the Democratic National Committee headquarters.

The break-in of the Democratic National Headquarters was named the Watergate scandal.

No, Hillary Clinton was not fired from the Watergate investigation. She worked as a lawyer on the Watergate impeachment inquiry staff, and her role was not terminated but she eventually left the team as her career advanced.

Yes, the five burglars involved in the Watergate scandal did face legal consequences. They were arrested and eventually convicted for breaking into the Democratic National Committee headquarters at the Watergate complex. Their actions ultimately led to a wider investigation that exposed political corruption and eventually led to the resignation of President Richard Nixon.

Idi Amin Dada, the former President of Uganda, was responsible for numerous human rights abuses and atrocities during his regime from 1971 to 1979. He ordered the execution of thousands of people, including political opponents, ethnic minorities, and intellectuals. His regime was characterized by torture, forced disappearances, and the expulsion of Asian Ugandans, causing immense suffering and loss of life.

One scandal associated with the Clinton presidency was the Monica Lewinsky scandal. It involved President Clinton's extramarital affair with a White House intern named Monica Lewinsky, which led to his impeachment by the House of Representatives on charges of perjury and obstruction of justice, although he was ultimately acquitted by the Senate.

The Watergate scandal, which involved the illegal activities of the Nixon administration, became an international concern due to its implications for democracy and the rule of law. As the incident unfolded, it raised questions about the integrity and trustworthiness of the US government. It also affected America's standing in the world, as other nations questioned the stability and reliability of the US as a global superpower. The incident highlighted the importance of transparency, accountability, and good governance, which are fundamental to international relations.

The Watergate scandal was uncovered by investigative journalists Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward of The Washington Post. Their reporting ultimately led to the resignation of President Richard Nixon in 1974.

Workers shredded all incriminating documents in Haldeman's office. The White House, with President Nixon's consent, asked the CIA to urge the FBI to stop its investigations into the burglary on the grounds of national security. In addition, the CRP passed out nearly $450,000 to the Watergate burglars to buy their silence after they were indicted in September of 1972.

Bob Woodward was Carl Bernstein's colleague on The Washington Post investigation of the Watergate building break in. The revelations ended in the impeachment of President Nixon.

They just fall flay on their face.

Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein were the Washington Post writers who investigated and uncovered the Watergate scandal.

Watergate is a very long and complicated subject, however to answer in a paragraph;

The people who conducted the break in at the democratic national headquarters had originally broken in 2 days previously, however one of the wire taps they installed to a phone was not working correctly, so they broke in again to 'fix the bug'. The people who did this were primarily composed of an in-house white house organisation Nixon prompted called 'the plumbers'. The intention of this group was to use espionage to find out where governmental 'leaks' (news stories deliberately broken to the media to the detriment of the government, it's policies or national security) were sourced, in other words, who was speaking to the press.

The organisation was funded indirectly by Nixon's CREEP (Campaign to re-elect the president) fund.

Although historically there are many contradicting positions, it is today largely agreed that John Dean was the principal 'head' of these espionage activities in so much that he gave authorisation to Watergate. It was later proven that Haldeman and Erhlichman also had authorised aspects of 'pay offs' thinly disguised as 'funds to aid the defence of the accused'.

Nixon's only direct involvement as such was 3 part;

1 - Nixon initially created the 'plumbers' to gain intelligence within the white house answerable only to his administration.

2 - His administration was largelythe "berlin wall" of Haldeman and Erhlichman. These were largely (other than Kissinger) the only 2 men who had direct access to Nixon and therefore Nixon created a situation where there was questionably illegal activities to which the only 2 who passed on information was Haldeman and Erhlichman (via John Dean) and therefore made Nixon complicit.

3 - The main point against Nixon was when he discussed 'paying them off' (the arrested and on trial 'plumbers'. Nixon is specifically heard to hear in a recording talking very openly about how money could be obtained to pay for the accused silence. The irony to this situation was that this money would be perfectly legal (albeit with some moral questions) should it be used to maintain their defence in court (as white house employees) and to cover their living costs. It was specifically the implication that the money was specifically for their silence that ultimately tied in Nixon and doomed him to be dragged into a "3rd rate burglary" that he could have easily, but painfully, have distanced himself comfortably from.

The Watergate break-in occurred in the early morning hours of June 17, 1972.

This gap was either accidently caused by Rose Mary woods by a misfunctioning Uher tape recorder or deliberately by somewone who wanted to discredit president Nixon.

Nixon was not happy, because it was so embarrasing. Everybody would think he had something to hide on that tape. But he never blamed Rose Mary Woods. "This gap was either accidently caused by Rose Mary woods by a misfunctioning Uher tape recorder" -This accusation was proven false when Rose Mary testified on November 8, 1973 that she did answer the phone and accidentally made "a terrible mistake" and re-recorded about 5 minutes, but she insisted she was not responsible for the other 13 1/2 minutes missing from the tapes. This was testified later in the same month that she stated "The buttons said on and off, forward and backward. I caught on to that fairly fast. I don't think I'm so stupid as to erase what's on a tape"

The reporters were Bob Woodward & Carl Bernstein. The primary newspaper leading the reporting on the Watergate scandal was the Washington post. However crediting them with "uncovering" the scandal is incorrect. What they did was publicize Watergate, virtually all of the information they reported was known to the FBI, as evidenced by what was "leaked" to them by "Deep Throat" (FBI agent Mark Felt)

The Watergate Scandal represented a constitutional crisis. Checks and balances, and the rule of law prevailed, with the Congress and Supreme Court acting against abuses of power by the presidency. Congress was prepared to draft Articles of Impeachment and the Supreme Court ruled that Nixon must release the tapes.

This question is kind of like the dogma of the holy trinity of Christendom. It's an unfathomably mystery shrouded in awe inspiring mysticism. Likewise, it's also a complete and foolish waste of time.

Richard Nixon sent the country rolling with the Watergate Scandal. The country was still trying to recover from Vietnam War when this scandal came to the surface. The Watergate scandal was Richard Nixon trying to cheat the country into reelecting him into office.

John Mitchell

No one "forced" Richard Nixon to resign. It was the only course of action he could take to avoid impeachment ("firing") on criminal charges and possible incarceration. His approval rating had dropped to 23%. Given the mood of the country at the time, if he had refused to resign, there is a strong possibility that he would have been legally removed from office and could have been jailed for his crimes.

. Nixon sent in burglars into the Watergate building where the democratic headquarters was located. A security guard found them by noticing a piece of masking tape on the door jam. Nixon was able to hide his relationship with the burglars until it was discovered that his instructions had been taped in the Oval Office. Two investigative journalists were told about the taped conversations and were able to uncover the plot. Not long after in an interview with David Frost Nixon stated that the president was "above the law" and laws didn't apply to him.

Richard M. Nixon. His campaign people were the ones that directed the break-in of the Democratic Headquarters in the Watergate complex; he orchestrated the cover-up and resigned as President when it was found out.

This term came from the breakin of the Watergate hotel that was used as site for the Democratic party during Nixon presidency.Subsequent history has proven that breakin with those employed in the Republican party of Richard Nixon.The people were jailed and Nixon was impeached as a direct result of that which was confirmed in the infamous Nixon Whitehouse tapes.

Improvement: NO. That is NOT true. Nixon was NOT impeached, you dumb people. He RESIGNED. God.
