This is TERRIFIC! I’m a Watergate junkie and I’ve never seen most of this footage before. THANK YOU! 🇺🇸👍🏼❤️

Awesome. Fred Graham was the best legal reporter of the era. CBS really screwed up by canning him. And Daniel Schorr demonstrates why his colleagues couldn’t stand him.

I remember the hearings, "must-see-TV" back in the day. Sad that kind of bipartisanship doesn't exist today.

Fred Graham was the legal correspondent for CBS news from 1972-1987. There is a reason why the Watergate sandal still captures people's attention to this very day - study the past if you don't you are bound to repeat it! Thanks for the upload.

God, this is fascinating stuff. Like a time machine, but without the pollution and bad ties.

This is so great! The audio is perfect. I love old breaking news and special reports.

No, you weren't hearing things. That was indeed Don Robertson doing the bumpers for this special report.

That Mitchell could have gotten up to 30 years and ended up getting about 2!

Tom Luken (D) took that 1st District Congress spot, by the way. And Bill Gradison even ran anti-Nixon. Thought he wasn't an incumbent.
Gradison then won the November election, and served for eight years, until Luken took it from him in 1982, holding it for eight years himself.

Silent Coup by Len Colodny and Robert Gettlin. It gets to the point of the whole thing, and how government and media really operate.
