Question

Both websites have extensive materials to let you sharpen your understanding of the Watergate scandal and its implications, so your first job is to explore both sites to make sure you have a good grasp of the details of Watergate.
Both websites carry short biographies of people important to the Watergate story. Browse the People and Key Players sections of each site and pick two people whose actions and stories interest you. Use the information about them to answer the next question.

Explain in a short essay of two to three paragraphs how the life and actions of the two figures you have chosen illuminate important aspects of the Watergate scandal.

Answer 1

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although the links to the websites are not attached to explore them. However, we can comment on the following.

Two people were key parts of the development of the story of the Watergate Scandal. I am referring to the Washington Post journalists Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein.

Both reporters became too interested in the events of June 1972, that kept on investigating and reporting information until they revealed that United States President Richard Nixon had connections with that event, when burglars were arrested bu the police, when they were robbing documents form the Democratic National Committee headquarters, in Washington D.C.

These two brave journalists end up winning the Pulitzer Price in 1973 for their coverage. They documented all their experiences in the best seller books "All the President's Men" and "The Final Days."

That is why I think the life and actions of the two reporters illuminate important aspects of the Watergate scandal.
