(5,810 posts)was off, but I suspect some of their customers who tried to record it were a little miffed.
I was a young adult when Watergate happened. (25) I was aware of what was happening, although not politically too savvy. I did know enough to watch the hearings and so I remembered the majority of the players if not all the details. I remember that John Dean was redeemed for his part mainly because he didn't go along with the others who tried to make it all go away. When his turn to testify came, he didn't weasel out but told what he knew. I suspect that is why he is allowed on the shows today to give his take on trump's situation.
I wouldn't mind an update on what happened to the rest of the people in the whole thing. The burglars, the Presidential aides, the Senators, etc. I know some served prison time or faded from the limelight. But a thorough explanation of the aftermath would be enlightening.
