Problem
After watching the YouTube video "The Final Report: Watergate (National Geographic)", answer the questions about Watergate:
a) What is the watergate scandal? What did Nixon actually do that was so wrong?
b) How did they get caught that evening of the break in? How were the burglars traced back to the White House?
c) What role did the media play in the Watergate scandal.
d) Ultimately, Nixon resigned rather than face impeachment. Should he have been impeached? (I.E. was Watergate worthy of an impeachment?) Why or why not? Should he have resigned? Why or why not?
e) Discuss the battle over the tapes and Nixon. Why was he recording things and did he eventually have to turn over the tapes?
