Watergate Break-In 50th Anniversary - Livestream History Tour. Hosted by Robert Kelleman - Washington, DC History & Culture.
About this event
Come join us for a 50th-anniversary program on the Watergate break-in.
The 1972 Watergate break-in and related events, which ended the presidency of Richard Nixon, remains the biggest political scandal in American history.
The book and film "All The President's Men," which exposed Watergate, has been called one of the greatest detective stories in American history.
We'll cover the key events before, during and after the Watergate break-in. This is an online/virtual version of our Washington, DC in-person tour.
The Watergate scandal was a political scandal in the United States involving the administration of U.S. President Richard Nixon from 1972 to 1974 that led to Nixon's resignation. The scandal stemmed from the Nixon administration's continuous attempts to cover up its involvement in the June 17, 1972 break-in of the Democratic National Committee headquarters at the Washington, D.C. Watergate Office Building. After the five perpetrators were arrested, the press and the U.S. Justice Department connected the cash found on them at the time to the Nixon re-election campaign committee.
All the President's Men is a 1976 American political thriller film about the Watergate scandal, which brought down the presidency of Richard M. Nixon. Directed by Alan J. Pakula with a screenplay by William Goldman, it is based on the 1974 non-fiction book of the same name by Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward, the two journalists investigating the Watergate scandal for The Washington Post. The film stars Robert Redford and Dustin Hoffman as Woodward and Bernstein, respectively; it was produced by Walter Coblenz for Redford's Wildwood Enterprises. The film was nominated in multiple Oscar, Golden Globe and BAFTA categories, and, in 2010, was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".
