And to think people trusted the NYT and Walter Cronkite and the rest of the media that good bit more back when Nixon was forced out.
Today’s journalists are the legacy of Cronkite, et al, and are the very worthy heirs. They were just as corruption, partisan and dishonest, they were just less deranged appearing. Don’t be deceived about this, young people.
I have only recently discarded my "generally accepted view" of Watergate. Not that I thought about it that much since 1974, but what I thought was kind of mainstream.
Crossfire Hurricane, the Mueller Investigation, the January 6 committee have all made it clear to me what "must have happened". How could I, or anyone, have overlooked that the author of the Woodward/Bernstein stories WAS THE DEPUTY FBI DIRECTOR??? How could we have overlooked that a CIA officer wrote to the Judge in the burglars trial with a roadmap that led back to Nixon? How could we ignore the RINOs out for blood like Howard Baker? How trusting we were, then.
