literature lifetime watergate
We're not going to have another Watergate in our lifetime. I'm sure.
money giving literature
I give lectures for money, but all the money goes to charity. So, I make no money from it.
lying literature should
There's hostility to lying, and there should be.
stories literature lawyer
Lawyers didn't seriously get involved in the Watergate stories until quite late, when we realized we were on to something.
senior literature way
Way before Watergate, senior administration officials hid behind anonymity.
literature information suggestions
Because of Watergate in part, I am kind of a magnet for calls and information and suggestions.
thinking political literature
Certain political figures think when you call them and ask them for a comment; that you are somehow doing something that you shouldn't be doing.
literature operations evidence
Even now there is no evidence that anyone involved in the Nixon operation was going to threaten us.
book literature littles
I recently did the David Letterman Show about my book. He was very serious and made no jokes and it caught me off guard a little bit. He was much more serious than some of the joke shows that journalists get on.
risk important literature
If information is true, if it can be verified, and if it's really important, the newspaper needs to be willing to take the risk associated with using unidentified sources.
achievement president literature
Nixon had some large achievements in foreign affairs. They will be remembered. But a president probably gets remembered for one thing, and Watergate will head the Nixon list, I suspect.
literature trouble deals
The legislator learns that when you talk a lot, you get in trouble. You have to listen a lot to make deals.
media police literature
We need to police ourselves in the media.
swag numbers literature
I suspect there have been a number of conspiracies that never were described or leaked out. But I suspect none of the magnitude and sweep of Watergate.
