"the washington post," bob woodward, as always, thank you so much. that bob points out. it ends up that for at least a small segment of republican voters in 2020, people who voted for him in 2016, but not in 2020, the vileness, the personal insults, the constant attacks, the angry tweets. >> bullying. >> the bullying, the calls for violence, it just became too much for at least a small segment of the republican party, and as we say on this show all the time, this is a 50/50 nation. even small shifts in the electorate have huge, overwhelming impacts on the direction of this country, the direction of washington, d.c., and again, we heard from brad raffensperger yesterday and what we heard from ron johnson several months ago and that is that republicans did well up and down the ballot in a lot of races, but donald trump ran behind them all, and he ran behind them all because as bob said there is a portion of the electorate that have just had enough and after these january 6th hearings, maybe it's not 50% of the republican party, maybe it's not a 20% shi

so, bob, your roaring "the post" along with carl's report uncovered the scanned amend and convincinglymitted lawmakers that action needed to be playing rick do you think the media could play the same kind of role in a political scandal today because i've heard a lot of people say, you know, the days of woodward and bernstein are over. we're in a different landscape. what do you think? >> i think the media is playing a very significant role in this, and if you look at the coverage and like all coverage of a scandal of things that are secretive and hidden it takes a lot of time to do this. can i do something here, pamela, because carl and i in trying to narrate the similarities between nixon and trump, there is a nixon tape. as you know, his oval office and other meetings were secretly recorded. in the end this led to his downfall, but there is a tape just after nixon is re-elected which i found remarkable and he's so happy that he beat george mcgovern. he won 49 states and he says the following to his aides in the oval office. remember, we're going to be around and outlive our enemies a

published this story where there was an enormous boost post that was when walter cronkite devoted a significant part of 2 broadcast to the watergate story. bob, talk about what the significance of that was to the reporting you were doing and to the post . >> what cronkite did was utterly amazing. they did a 15 minute segment and essentially it's put our stories in the front page of the washington post and it was the whole basis for the 15 minute part and then we had a second 15 minute part prepared was down to seven minutes because what bill bailey ... >> had been approached by colson. >> and an approach by colson means i hammer andscrewdriver and he folded a little bit but not completely . and sally quinn was saying that was just ecstatic about that story catherine brown and her memoirs says at that point the washington post is this local paper. walter put us on the map. and she's right. it was a local paper. you couldn't buy the washington post in new york for a period only in washington. you could get it inrockville, you could get hundreds of copies in rockville . >> it's still sitting there. >> none in new york. so that sense of that cbs

pleasure to introduce you to three journalists who represent the very best of the washington post -- dan balz, bob woodward, and carl bernstein. >> the story started on a saturday. that means that big shot reporters like their weekends off. you have the youngsters who are generally in there on saturdays on sundays. that was true for this story. woodward and bernstein were too young metropolitan reporters who were working that day. i mean, that is how they got the assignment. what they did with it was something else. >> therefore, i shall resign from the presidency effective at noon tomorrow. the vice president will be sworn in as president at that hour in this office. >> the cover-up had little to do with a break-in. it was to protect covert operations involving the entire u.s. intelligence community. >> peoples lives are in danger. >> yes. >> what else did he say? >> he said that everyone is involved. >> do you know the result of the latest gallup poll? half the country had never even heard of the word watergate. you guys are probably pretty tired, right? you should be. go home. get a nice, hot b

but bob and carl told as much of the truth they could learn every day -- they got it right. do you want to be -- read more in today's washington post. guest: can i just add a footnote to that? bob and carl were alone on that story for many months. they had done the work. they had applied issue leather. they were able to produce stories that nobody else seemed to be able to get. every reporter likes to be first on a story and head on a story, -- ahead on a story but it can , be a little lonely if you are the only ones doing it, and there are not a lot of others who are essentially quickly confirming those stories. there was certainly nervousness at the washington post. if you read the histories of that era, there was nervousness at the washington post about why is it that we are the only ones who have this? there was a very important moment in the fall of 1972 -- walter cronkite, the anchor at cbs news, a very trusted news source, devoted 14 minutes of one of his programs and 8 of another of his nightly newscasts to the watergate story, and that brought it to public consciousness in a way it had not. it was very important, obviously

that defensive began to unravel in part based on facts uncovered by washington post reporters bob woodwarde senate opened its marathon watergate hearings. a key witness, john dean, the white house counsel said nixon knew about efforts to cover up the break-in. >> i began by telling the president that there was a cancer growing on the presidency. and if the cancer was not removed, the president himself would be killed by it. >> then a spectacular discovery. virtually all important oval office conversations were recorded on audiotape. because president nixon had ordered the installation of recorders. >> good evening. the country tonight is in the midst of what may be the most serious constitutional crisis in its history. >> when a special prosecutor archibald cox, push to get the tapes, nixon wanted cox fired. both the attorney general and deputy attorney general refused to do it and quit. in what became known as the saturday night massacre. under an order from the supreme court, the white house eventually turned over the tapes in july 1974. after a house committee voted to impeach in key re

joining me now is "washington post" associate editor bob woodward.this weekend. so i want to talk to you. i read that. first, some break news from your colleagues. reporting that the president on january 6th, he gave the speech, was so eager to go with the marchers and he dp say i'll be going with you to the hill. he wanted to go with them to the secret service scrambled to create a motorcade and didn't hatch. he did say we're going to walk down to the crowd. so websites to the committee and that's obviously part of what is going to be unveiled in this series of hearings. how hard is it going to be for them to get the public's attention where people consumed by gas prices and other problems and many of them want to move on and at this point fox news the big fox news channel is not going to carry it. >> but i think people are going to watch. they realize the stakes are democracy. and what happened and i'm convinced that donald trump others conspired and criminal way to overturn the election and prevent biden from taking power legitimately. and if you

the investigative work of carl bernstein and bob woodward at the washington post uncovered the scandald how it echoes today. >> the shadowy tale of the watergate caper veered closer to the white house today. >> we didn't bring down the president we just did the reporting. >> nixon brought nixon down. >> what he had done is set up a campaign of espionage and sabotage and cover-up to essentially select who he's going to run against. it was an attack on the fundamental system of selecting a nominee for each party and the actual campaign itself. and when you pick it apart it's the ugliest, dirtiest thing a president could ever do at that point. >> what's the essential element of democracy? it's free and fair election. he undermined that. >> the matter of watergate has tarnished the prestige and put in question the credibility of the presidency of richard nixon. >> how did watergate change the presidency or this country? i think that already with the vietnam war there was starting to be a decline of trust in the presidency. this took it to another level. never before had we had an overly cr

there was one other reporter, this guy from "the washington post" "metro" page. it was bob woodward. >> in come the five burglars, dressed in business suits. nine months on the police beat, i've never seen a burglar who was well dressed. it just telegraphed mystery. >> there were these little things that cropped up that were suspicious. >> our police reporter had learned that first day that they had sequential 100-dollar bills in their pockets. says to me that somebody probably paid these guys. >> when the d.c. police caught them, they had something like 35 rolls of undeveloped film. and very advanced cameras with them. so they weren't just looking for one file, they were looking for tons of information. >> what's going on here? this isn't just a local break-in after all. i was getting more and more excited about this story. this was going to go higher. >> started calling around, down to florida where the burglars were from, talked to some of their wives. >> at that point, i think i'd moved to the front of the courthouse. the judge said, "where have you worked?" and the lea

bradley's, uh, third or fourth overture and left news day and went to the washington post and became a colleague of bob and carl's, you know, that was one of the reason why but i would like to tell you about what it was like to be in the press corps in that era i happen to experience firsthand some of the excesses of the nixon white house, and it was written about in a number of books. this had nothing to do with watergate. it was before then bob haldeman was called into the oval office by richard nixon and nixon told him newsday is doing an investigation on me and bibi riboso in our finances bibi. ribosa was his best friend banker could keep his cane and haldeman said to him who's doing the investigation and nixon said those --. and it's on the nixon tapes and uh haldeman said you mean marty schram. he said yeah him and some guy named named green burger green bomb or something like that and at that point, uh, uh, i have to interject. the other fellow leading the investigation in fact and had assembled a whole team. i was part of it was bob green g-r-e-e-n-e a big 350 pound irishman who is now buried i
