Reaction to Watergate tapes contrasts with today's response
Fifty years ago, a White House aide revealed that then-President Nixon’s conversations had been recorded. The tapes included Nixon working to cover up the Watergate break-in connected to his campaign and became a point of no return as he slid to political downfall. Lisa Desjardins discussed more with Watergate prosecutor Jill Wine-Banks and Stuart Streichler of the University of Washington.
