mitchell said, jesus. i got to the end of the first paragraph saying he controlled the secret fund and what it paid for. mr. mitchell said, jesus christ, all that crap, the publishe eer stairs will get her tit caught in a big fat ringer. i jumped back from the phone worried about my own parts more than hers. then he said, what certainly is the most chilling moment in my years in journalism and i think bob's as well, when this campaign is over, we are going to do a little story on you two boys, too. and he hung up the phone. we were 28 and 29 years old. we knew whatever it was that he was going to do that he meant it. but what it really was was indicative of his attitude toward a free press. i called ben bradley

mitchell. he is concerned about his friend. haldeman once told me that richard nixon believed he was president because of john mitchell. right or wrong. >> host: his campaign manager. >> guest: his friend, nudged him to do it, and encouraged him to do it and made it possible, giving him a good base in new york. then -- just felt really great at -- great affection for mitchell, and did not want this to splash on mitchell. so that's where it starts. but he is also worried, something very interesting, bob, and i don't do at love commentary. i just let the facts roll out -- >> host: this is a fashion of presentation in a very interesting way, that you were able to rein -- you must have had a good editor. >> guest: i did, and i tried to edit myself along the way to stay out of it, if you will. but one of the things that is very apparent, very early, is he is concerned if he has said something to colson that has triggered the watergate break-in. i didn't elaborate on that. but this is a subtext in th

in the conversation with mitchell, larue told mitchell that more money was needed for attorney fees, $75,000, and another sum for the maintenance of the family of mr. hunt while he was in prison. well, the total amount was rejected and a figure of $75,000 was approved by mitchell. but the insurance it looks for attorney e fees. the president didn't know and then going to dean's conversation with the president immediately following which was the first time that the president of the united states has been thoroughly briefed on what had been going on, supposedly, dean failed to tell the president this very most important fact. i would submit u to you it's the most damaging evidence against the president and yet dean has failed to tell the truth so many times during these proceedings not just to us but in other hearings that you almost lose count. for instance, we were told before this committee, his testimony was very good, that on december 22nd, 1972, he interrogated mr. dean for three solid hours as to what had happened to the contents of the safe. dean told him about the things that

george mitchell ran the company called mitchell energy and they were midsized natural gas. they were responsible for 10% of all the gas going to chicago. they were making money. they did pretty well but around 1982 mitchell's can see the writing on the wall and he can see that his company was running out of natural gas. there wasn't much he could do. he didn't have an acreage offshore in asia and africa like exxon and all the big guys. all we had was an acreage in texas so he said guys let's try to figure out out, let's try to drill a little lower and tackle the shale formation. shale is rock and they call it in the industry the source route. source rock meaning it's where the oil and gas for starts and over millions of years is slowly goes up higher towards the surface. historically we drill down vertically as with the straw kind of thing and we try to find reservoirs of oil and gas that has flown up from the shale formation. shale is very compressed and it looks a little bit like a tombstone. they call it the tombstone rock industry. we knew there was a lot of energy and

i don't think mitchell insisted on it at all. i think and mitchell told them stuff he had gotten was junk. libby is a highly manipulative person. when he put together his book will i think he tried to do an honest account. but he does about eight years after-the-fact and he tries to look at other people and remember what he remembers. i'm the first to tell you that memory is not the best source. something like these tapes, i remembered so many things encrypted so many things. this is a contemporaneous record records. we make these kinds of mistakes. >> host: one of the things you do in your life as you go around to law firms and talk to lawye lawyers. >> guest: bar associations. >> host: bar associations about this kind of situation when a lawyer should do. suppose you were a teacher in college or a high school and you taught a class on watergate and you wanted to tell the students in some grand synthesized way but this was and what is the lesson citizens and students should take away from this extraordinary sample? >> guest: we

he became mike mitchell and his son is george mitchell.i want to talk to george mitchell and i love this story because it really connected with me. my great-grandfather got off the boat and said what's your name? they said we can't spell that take the last guy. it was succumbing. i could have been brian it was zuckerman. we have something in common and he told me a story. the story is a fascinating one. as are a lot of the things in my book. george mitchell ran this company called mitchell energy and they were and midsize producer or they produce natural gas and they were responsible for 10% of all the gas going to chicago. they were making money. he did pretty well but by around 1982 mitchell could see the writing on the wall and he could see his company was running out of natural gas. there wasn't much he could do. he didn't have an acreage offshore in asia and africa like exxon. all he had was an acreage in texas. so he said guys let's try to figure it out. let's try to tackle the shale formation. let me explain what shale is. shale is

>> no. >> what about mitchell? >> mitchell did. the president always protected mitchell, he had too protect mitchell? >> why? >> because he felt about mitchell the way i did about hunt, only more so. john mitchell didn't want to come here, his wife's an alcoholic, i could never do anything to hurt mitchell. i think there he really felt a special loyalty that would have been different than with me, i was a young guy on the career latter moving up. here's an older man with a half a million dollar a year law practice in new york. nixon talks him to coming down, his wife embarrasses him, he ends up disgraced. >> where were you the day nixon resigned? >> in prison. >> how did you feel? >> well, i was relieved that it was over disappointed because i would have thought he would have taken his own troops with him if he was going to resign. pardon us or commute the sentences. hopeful that jerry ford would do that sad for nixon personally. i really felt empathetic, i knew what an incredibly difficult thing that was for him to do. just to sta

mitchell complies. listen to what happens. >> walk back. get on your knees. he's running. the trooper chases him. >> the woman in the vehicle, but she didn't run, stood there, like, oh, god. >> look at her, just put her purse there, i'm not dealing with the fools anymore. >> that's her attitude, waiting for them to get back, and this time, he's in custody of police, arrested, facing search charges, but could have been avoided had he pulled over after he initially hit the trooper's car. >>> this is a dramatic rescue of that 7 o-year-old man. bystanders jumped in the water to rescue this guy. at the last minute. what happens? drove the car off the pier into the water. you see the car beneath the water, and people swam down, pulled him out of the car just in time. you see this man. he looks lifeless, but he is still alive. other people all standing nearby watching what's going on. police and other rescue crews are on scene. you see they have the man, now, the arms around that little life buoy, and they drop a ladder down to get him out of the water. reports translated say he

mitchell went to jail, you may recall. but actually that .. makes mitchell look like an amateur. part of what has happened throughout the department is they have been filling the ranks of the justice department. dissing -- that career civil servant is supposed to be a system that hires people without politics, professionals, and what they have been doing is spilling their ranks with their political cronies, people from liberal advocacy groups in washington they get no attention from the press. this inspector general report talked about how in the hiring process for career lawyers in the civil-rights division, which is where i used to work, the division had overlooked and refuse to hire lawyers with sterling credentials from some of the biggest law firms in the country and had hired almost all their lawyers exclusively from five liberal advocacy organizations including the aclu. that tells you the mindset that is there. what i was at the justice department we saw law as the fed's within which we have to operate. the department today does not see the law. their view is they want to

well doing think mitchell insisted on it at all. i think mitchell just told him the stuff he had gotten was junk. and liddy is a highly manipulative personment when he put together his book, i think he tried to do an honest accounting. >> host: i do, too. >> guest: but he does it eight years after the fact and tries to look at other people and then remember what he remembers. i'm the first to tell you that memory is not the best source. i think something like these tapes -- i remembered so many things that correct set many things. this is a contemporaneous record that we make these kind of mistakes -- >> host: one of the things you do in your life is grew around to law firms and talk to lawyers about -- >> guest: bar associations. >> host: about this kind of situation and what a lawyer should do. suppose you were a teacher in college or high school, and you taught a class on watergate, and you wanted to tell the students in some grand synthesized way what this was, and what is the lesson citizens or students should take away from th

john mitchell is mitchell's problem. haldeman is haldeman's problem, whatever it is. get rid of them. then the president would have survived. >> you went to see the president after 1974, after his resignation? >> several times. a few times. then i saw him at various occasions and reunions. >> one time you went with the children it was awkward but you said characteristically so. did you ever talk to him about all of that? >> no, never. never. i was always -- i'm a, what are we going to do tomorrow type guy. i really don't wallow in the past. i don't do this. i am excited about what's going to happen tomorrow. and to wallow back on watergate or something with the president, i can't think of anything more uncomfortable than to have said, mr. president, i'm here today to see you and why don't we talk about watergate. what are your deepest feelings? it's just -- i know -- and the other part is -- i mean, i knew him pretty well. i didn't know him well in terms of i'm your friend and you're my friend. but i was around for years. and i observed and went with him. i knew what

weekend that john mitchell decided to improve the plan. you had a sense that john mitchell had been on the phone with martha. >> no. he had been up all night with her. my understanding of it was, i wasn't there, but my understanding is that from john mitchell talking to him that john was up all night with martha. martha had a severe drinking problem. he had been up all night with her. then he had this meeting with her the next day. there's an interesting story here. the first time i ever heard the term president-elect was when john mitchell said, mr. president-elect, i can't go with you. that response was up in the waldorf towers when nixon put his arm around john's shoulder and said, john, we're going to florida to start planning the government. and mitchell said, mr. president-elect, i can't go with you. and a tear comes down his face. and he says, i've got to go to connecticut and figure out what to do about martha. she was in an institution up in connecticut at that point. so her problem really was severe then. and she gets out. she's

tiffany mitchell is excellent. i give her an a. why? she's very clear about telling her story and then she stops. she doesn't embellish when she doesn't know. she says, i don't know. when you asked her the same thing repeatedly, she told the same story. she's calm. she's factual. and he doesn't overstate. i think she's a terrific witness. >> jim cavanaugh, as the police reveal absolutely nothing about what happened on that street, relentlessly continue to reveal nothing, the evidence continues to develop from witnesses who were there, that this was first degree murder. >> i agree, lawrence. i thought dorian was credible, as well. when he talked about going behind the car there after michael was first shot and he couldn't move his leg, you know, that is a fear response, natural or the brain makes you do that. i've felt like that in shootouts. nobody can make that up. he really experienced that neurological fear. when i watched him say that, i said this is a truthful recount, because nobody could make that up. it's a feeling you can't eve

in fact, nixon brings mitchell to washington when mitchell really didn't want to be attorney general.-- >> so he's covering for mitchell. but isn't he also covering for his '73 when i tell him. >> does he know there are plumbers, so-called, burglars out there? >> he knows there's a unit that was set up but didn't know illegally until i told him about that. in fact, halderman all but tells him, that's where he says their strings will run out. >> you make it sound like, i know you're not a nixon fan pure and simple. you give him a chance here. are you saying he did this on a loyalty to a friend? >> in the early stage, for sure. what i do is i just trace the conversations that come out in the tapes. i start with the first conversation. i go to until they pull the plug. i let the story tell itself. i don't try to make -- i give enough information so the reader knows, you know, this is outright untrue, but i really just let the story roll on its own without commentary. >> let's listen to more of what you looked at here, just four days after his conversation with halderman we just heard, ni

i'm andrea mitchel in washington. where president obama and his national security team are now in crisis mode. tracking developments in iraq after the u.s. launched its first air strikes this morning against isis. what we are apparently warning shots against an isis artillery piece outside erbil. it could be the first stage in a wider air operation. joining me with the latest, nbc news chief pentagon correspondent jim miklaszewski. mik, this was not a big strike today but it was sending a signal to isis. >> absolutely. and clearly it's being described here pretty much as a target of opportunity. u.s. war planes were in the air along with drones keeping an eye on those isis forces. poised just outside of erbil. you know, which is a key strategic city for the kurdistan area there in the north. when suddenly apparently the isis fighters started lobbing shells in the general direction of some peshmerga fighters. and then we're told the two u.s. navy fa-18 bombers launched each a one guided 500-pound bomb to the target whi

i met george mitchell two or three times before he died. george mitchell was one of those incredibly fascinating characters. he was born in galveston, sun of an immigrant, grew up poor. just pulled himself up. classic american story. rose up. when he passed away he was not just incredibly wealthy but have given the incredible amounts of money away. what fascinated me, two things. first of all, this was a guy who believed in science. he really was -- he was coming into his own at a time when houston was still full of wild catchers who would build wells on hunches. this was a guy that said, i want proof before i go drilling. he really was one of the first a sort of drive the industry into modernity. and he was the guy who said, look, i know that there is gas up in this shale north of fort worth in some acreage i own. i am going to let my company drill a couple of wells a year, to a three per year, does not matter how much or if it is a failure. chile is fine. he did that for 16 years until finally he had a breakthrough. stars in

now, mitchell was killed by a drunk driver in august 1949, leaving her next book unfinished.that book was not a sequel, all right. she refused to write one. she refused to even comment on whether rhett and scarlet would get back together. when her estate approved the writing of a sequel, both the sequel and gone with the wind were once again best sellers. mitchell's book has sold tens of millions of copies and it's never been out of front, yet the movie has reached millions more people than the book as. as a movie, gone with the wind was intended to unify two genres of hollywood films, the male oriented war film and the woman's picture. what do people call the woman's picture today? chick flicks, right? it was intended to unify a guy film and a chick flick. by combining rhett butler and scarlet o'hara. the producer created one of the most popular movies of all time. the scale of this movie is unprecedented and it was the most expensive film made to this point. he paid mitchell $50,000 for the screen writes, which doesn't sound like much, but if you adjust for inflation, it's
