Answer:
There was a break-in, FBI Ordered Tapes.
Explanation:
There was a break-in at the Water Gate hotels, where the Democratic Committee Headquarters were. After some investigation, there was new information found that members of Nixon's administration gave the approval for illegal activites. The people of the United States wanted Nixon impeached, so the investigation of the Water Gate continued. The Supreme Court then ordered him to hand over the tapes- in which Nixon told the FBI to end the investigation. He was the first president to resign in U.S. history, and was later pardoned of his crimes by Gerald Ford.

In this article he describes the already decline in paper-books sales due to the rise of digital platforms such as Kindle, epub, etc, and how the future of book-publishers looked grimer because of an agreement between authors, publishers and Google to allow the scanning and digitalizing of books to make them accesible in website and digital platforms.
This agreement would be dramatic for the sectors of the book-publishing industry dealing with marketing, archiving and distributing physical paper books.
