In this episode we simply relive this unfathomable moment in history. Not only the resignation of an elected President of the United States, but the resignation of arguably one of the greatest in the history of the country.
In this episode we tune in to the live coverage of the time from the three networks then in existence, CBS News, ABC News, and NBC News. They will interview many of the common everyday Americans so shell shocked by the events of the past year, some of the political figures of the era, and let some of their own talking heads analyze the historic moment.
Then at 9pm on August 8, 1974, Richard Nixon addresses the nation. You will witness it all here, on "Nixon and Watergate" , just like you were flipping through the dial as it was occuring that fateful day.
A day when we overthrew the President that had gotten us out of Vietnam, saved the nation of Israel, sensibly protected the environment, desegregated the southern school system, opened up China, thawed the Cold War with the Soviet Union and brought peace and stability to a very troubled and divided world.
