Summary

The Watergate scandal began with a break-in at the headquarters of the Democratic National Committee in Washington, D.C., on June 17, 1972. This incident was not isolated, and it extended beyond a simple burglary. It was a cover-up of many illegal activities, all of which could be traced back to the White House, to the president's staff, and to the president himself. At the heart of the scandal were President Richard M. Nixon's efforts to protect his own political standing rather than ensure that the truth was revealed. His actions broke the law and damaged the country's faith in its highest political office. In The Watergate Scandal, learn how this political cover-up dramatically impacted the relationship between politicians and the media, altered the powers of the executive office, and forced Nixon from the presidency.
