This can easily be answered by looking up their names or "the Watergate scandal" on Google. If you didn't have access to Google, however, you should know that the Watergate scandal involved former President Nixon spying on his political opponents at the Watergate hotel. Although this is not infallible logic, if you had to make an 'educated guess', Nixon was the president at the time. The president lives in Washington D.C, the US capital. This should lead you to believe that the Washington Post might have uncovered this scandal. Indeed those two reporters worked for the Washington Post.

Answer:  <u>Washington</u> Post

<u>Details:</u>

"Watergate" refers to efforts by persons working for President Nixon's reelection campaign to spy on their opponents at Democratic party headquarters, and subsequent efforts to cover up those crimes.

The first break-in attempt by burglars working on Nixon's behalf occurred  in May, 1972, as persons connected to the Nixon reelection campaign broke into the Democratic National Committee office in the Watergate complex of buildings in Washington, DC.  They were planting wire-taps on the Democrats' phone lines, and also stole copies of documents.  When the wire-taps didn't work properly, they broke in again (in June) to try to fix the surveillance devices, but they were caught.

An insider at the FBI who remained anonymous at the time, known only as "Deep Throat," began to give information concerning Watergate to reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein of the Washington Post.   Persistent investigative reporting by Woodward and Bernstein brought the scandal to light and forced Congressional hearings.   (Note:  Years later it was revealed that Deep Throat was Mark Felt, who at the time was Associate Director of the FBI.)

Nixon's role in Watergate was especially in his efforts and those of members of his staff to cover up what had happened.  Ultimately, the Watergate affair brought down the Nixon presidency.  He resigned in order to avoid impeachment.  And the whole affair made Americans more distrusting of government.

Explin the difference between a legislative referendum and a popular referendum
Sergeu [11.5K]
Legislative referendum: the governing body alludes a bit of enactment to the general population to either endorse or dismiss it by vote. Mandatory submission – Typically new constitutions must be submitted to the general population for endorsement before they are viewed as sanctioned.   
Popular Referendum : The general population may challenge a law as of late go by the lawmaking body. In the event that enough marks are assembled, the law will be put to a vote by the general population who may vote to invalidate the law

Why do Legislative Districts vary so much in size?
Anna71 [15]
According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, the number of seats in the lower house of state legislatures varies from a high of 400 in New Hampshire to a low of 40 in Alaska. But what really matters is how much population each legislator represents. The table lists the 10 states with the highest and lowest populations and the population per legislator. California has by far the largest population per district, New Hampshire the lowest.
