The Watergate scandal in the 1970s turned U.S. politics upside down, creating skepticism, cynicism and pessimism throughout the country. For those involved in both the burglary of the Democratic National Committee headquarters at Washington D.C.'s Watergate hotel/apartment complex and the burglary coverup, it meant jail time and a loss of reputation. For southern socialite Martha Mitchell , wife of John Mitchell, President Richard Nixon's Attorney General and campaign manager for the Committee for the Re-Election of the President, it became a nightmare. Painted as a neurotic alcohol and pill addict, Martha, nevertheless, stood firm in her insistence that the highest levels of the White House were embroiled in the scandal. Fifty years after the scandal became exposed, producer Robbie Pickering brings Martha's story to life in his production of "Gaslit." Listen in as Robbie explains why he felt the necessity to set the record straight.
