Answer:

<h2>A) the freedom of press guaranteed by the First Amendment. </h2>

Explanation:

"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.

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 <em>Washington Post.</em>   Persistent investigative reporting by Woodward and Bernstein brought the scandal to light and forced Congressional hearings.   The freedom of the press played a central role in the road to the impeachment of President Nixon.
