The Mysteries of Watergate

Ep. 33: Watergate Journalism, The Seeds of Our Discontent


Listen Later

Clearly the full and correct Watergate story was not reported by the Washington Post. Often a journalist simply gets a story wrong while acting in good faith.  But if the Post was willfully deceitful in its Watergate reporting, not simply negligent, then the entire modern project of slashing “investigative” journalism is built on fraud. Is today’s partisan journalism based on a “proof of concept” that was obtained by fraud? If so, our country has been divided horribly by the Washington Post’s Watergate journalism, the seeds of our discontent.
