The Washington Post Writers Group (WPWG), a division of The Washington Post News Service & Syndicate, is a press syndication service distributing opinion columnists, breaking news, podcasts and video journalism, lifestyle content, and graphics and data visualizations. The service is operated by The Washington Post. Introduction by Benjamin C. Bradlee. The contents includes The Break-in and the News Breaks, Post Editorial Perspective, Dramatis Personae, Analysis of a Scandal, The Agnew Crisis, and Watergate and the Press. Among the contributors were Lou Cannon, Haynes, Johnson, William Greider, David Broder, Herblock, and Katharine Graham. Publisher Graham's contribution of The Mandate of a Free and Able Press is an often overlooked but significant essay that spoke both to the time at which is was written but also to the times since then, especially when ideas about Freedom of the Press, Freedom of Speech, and Censorship have come increasingly to the fore. The Watergate scandal was a major political controversy in the United States during the presidency of Richard Nixon from 1972 to 1974, ultimately resulting in Nixon's resignation. The name originated from attempts by the Nixon administration to conceal its involvement in the June 17, 1972 break-in at the Democratic National Committee headquarters located in the Watergate Office Building in Washington, D.C. Following the apprehension of the five individuals involved in the break-in, both the press and the Department of Justice connected the funds to the Committee for the Re-Election of the President, or CRP, the fundraising organization of Richard Nixon's 1972 re-election campaign. Subsequent investigations and revelations during trials prompted the U.S. House of Representatives to grant the House Judiciary Committee expanded investigative authority. Additionally, the Senate established the U.S. Senate Watergate Committee, which conducted hearings related to the incident. Witnesses testified that Nixon had sanctioned plans to cover up his administration's involvement in the break-in and that there was a voice-activated taping system in the Oval Office. Nixon's administration resisted the investigations, leading to a constitutional crisis. The televised Senate Watergate hearings garnered nationwide attention and public interest. Numerous revelations and Nixon's efforts to impede the investigation in 1973 led the House to initiate impeachment proceedings against him. The Supreme Court's ruling in United States v. Nixon (1974) compelled Nixon to surrender the Oval Office tapes, which revealed his complicity in the cover-up. The House Judiciary Committee approved three articles of impeachment against Nixon, who subsequently resigned from office on August 9, 1974, becoming the only U.S. president to do so. His successor, Gerald Ford, pardoned him on September 8, 1974. The Watergate scandal resulted in 69 indictments and 48 convictions, involving several high-ranking officials from the Nixon administration. The term "Watergate" has since become synonymous with various clandestine and illicit activities conducted by Nixon's aides, including the bugging of political opponents' offices, unauthorized investigations, and the misuse of government agencies for political purposes. The addition of "-gate" to a term has since been used to denote public scandals, particularly in politics. Spiro Theodore Agnew (November 9, 1918 - September 17, 1996) was the 39th vice president of the United States, serving from 1969 until his resignation in 1973. He is the second of two vice presidents to resign the position, the first being John C. Calhoun in 1832. In 1973, Agnew was investigated by the United States Attorney for the District of Maryland on suspicion of criminal conspiracy, bribery, extortion, and tax fraud. Agnew took kickbacks from contractors during his time as Baltimore county e.…
