...government. Many of the details about this crime that happened over 40 years ago have since surfaced and have been brought into the light. Although, the main reason why it even occurred at all is still a mystery. The outcomes behind this mystery are as numerous as the stars in the sky. The Watergate Scandal When did it happen? On 17 June 1972, 5 men were arrested for burglarizing the Watergate offices of the Democratic National Committee in Washington D.C. The five men were Bernard L. Barker, Virgilio R. Gonzales, James W. McCord, Eugenio R. Martinez, and Frank A. Sturgis. All five of these men were known to be Anti-Castro supporters, and to have worked with the C.I.A before in their lives. At the time of the break-in, Deep Throat was the Associate Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigations. Deep Throat’s real name was Mark Felt. He played a large role in bringing a lot of the wrong doings into the light. The Whitehouse Taping System It is well known to anyone that the Whitehouse is monitored by several surveillance methods by security professionals at any given moment. If any recordings were there during the Watergate robbery then they...

...of the Democratic National Committee in a Washington, D.C. office building named Watergate. Their work, under editor Benjamin C. Bradlee, became known for being the first to report on a number of political "dirty tricks" used by the Nixon re-election committee during his campaign for reelection. Their book about the scandal, All the President's Men, became a #1 best-seller and was later turned into a movie. The 1976 film, starring Robert Redford as Woodward and Dustin Hoffman as Bernstein, transformed the reporters into celebrities and inspired a wave of interest ininvestigative journalism. The book and movie also led to one of Washington, D.C.'s most famous mysteries: the identity of Woodward's secret Watergate informant known as Deep Throat, a reference to the title of a popular pornographic movie at the time. Woodward said he would protect Deep Throat's identity until the man died or allowed his name to be revealed. For over 30 years, only...

...just beginning their career for The Washington Post. Through the use of good reporting, investigating skills, and with the help of a secret source known at the time as “Deep throat,” Bernstein and Woodward we’re able to unravel the biggest presidential scandal in the history of the United States, The Richard Nixon Watergate scandal. Without the investigation of Bernstein and Woodward, The Watergate Scandal may have never been brought to light. The book chronicles everything from when Bernstein and Woodward were given an assignment to cover a burglary at the Watergate complex in Washington DC, to the events that led up to Nixon’s State of the Union address about one year from when the Watergate Scandal started to unravel. The book starts off with Bernstein and Woodward getting assigned to a story about a burglary at the Watergate Office Complex in Washington DC. The two were not overly excited to be assigned to the story, as it was meant to be a filler story for the paper, but something in particular struck the two of them about the story (Bernstein, 14). The burglary took place at the Democratic National Convention at the Watergate Complex. The burglary resulted in the arrest of five men who were charged with breaking and entering. Bernstein and Woodward went above and beyond their reporting duties and thought that there was something up with the burglary, especially because it occurred at the Democratic National Convention, so they continued to investigate the story. As...

...Webber Sybrun December 20, 2011 Final Exam Question Choice 2 and 3 3) Movies are useful tools for thinking about professional behavior and ethics. For example, films about lawyers can “raise questions about the proper and possible role of law in society”* while reflecting “powerful myths that influence our reactions to issues we meet in real life, including legal issues.” The same applies to journalism. We see these movies and in some ways they show us how American institutions are effected by crisis’s that undermines their credibility, another role we see and learn from in films is journalism “journalists are often called upon to make decisions based on a morally mature interpretation of principles rather than any specific code of conduct,” films gives dramatic life to struggles over those principles. In “All the Presidents Men” we clearly see that the US government and staff are not honest and trustworthy and there credibility is undermined and under investigation by the press. Washington Post reporters Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward, whose investigation into the Watergate scandal set the stage for President Richard Nixon's eventual resignation. The free press myth is built upon the tenet that journalism can and should report truth that citizens may rationally act upon in making democracy work. That tenet underlies both libertarian and social responsibility models of the press. Classical libertarianism did not assume that journalism had a specific duty to present...

...compensate the cover-up from the Nation and the Congress. After a while, investigation came into the picture. It exposed people like John Ehrlichman and Bob Haideman. Both men held high end positions. John Chief of the Domestic Council, and Bob, Chief of Staff. In conclusion, both men were fired. Eventually, the Watergate investigation exposed that the president, Nixon was aware of the attempted interruption since the start and was actually involved in the attempted scheme to hide it. In the beginning of the scandal, the media conveyed the story as insignificant. This was continuous until two young brave journalists, Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward did some of their own investigation, desperate to uncover the truth. With the help of Deep Throat, Woodward and Bernstein revealed the rest of the story and became the reason why Nixon resigned from office. As a surprise, later the Watergate investigation exposed a system that had recorded the conversations in the most...

...FBI's No. 2 Was 'Deep Throat' By David Von Drehle Deep Throat, the secret source whose insider guidance was vital to The Washington Post's groundbreaking coverage of the Watergate scandal, was a pillar of the FBI named W. Mark Felt, The Post confirmed yesterday. As the bureau's second- and third-ranking official during a period when the FBI was battling for its independence against the administration of President Richard M. Nixon, Felt had the means and the motive to help uncover the web of internal spies, secret surveillance, dirty tricks and coverups that led to Nixon's unprecedented resignation on Aug. 9, 1974, and to prison sentences for some of Nixon's highest-ranking aides. Felt's identity as Washington's most celebrated secret source had been an object of speculation for more than 30 years until yesterday, when his role was revealed by his family in a Vanity Fair magazine article. Even Nixon was caught on tape speculating that Felt was "an informer" as early as February 1973, at a time when Deep Throat was supplying confirmation and context for some of The Post's most explosive Watergate stories. But Felt's repeated denials, and the stalwart silence of the reporters he aided -- Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein -- kept the cloak of mystery drawn up around Deep Throat. In place of a name and a face, the source acquired a magic and a mystique. He was the romantic truth teller half hidden in the shadows of a Washington area parking...

...It is such a shame that I just found out about the Watergate Scandal through watching this film. Nevertheless, the Investigative journalism/writing shown in the film did not fail to give such a strong knowledge about the various illegal government and criminal activities and idea about how one works in this industry. The Washing Post reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Berstein illuminated the “behind the scenes” of what really happened during the Watergate break in that eventually lead to the major scandal in the 1970s, the Watergate scandal. It includes illegal activities done by the Nixon Administration such as spying as a tactic for the presidential campaign and political sabotage and criminal activities such as abuse of presidential power and obstruction of justice, giving hush money to the burglars and having a huge slush fund. These facts uncovered by the two journalists played a huge role to spark a major investigation in this scandal that led to a tangle of legal actions and effect to the American government and drive people to be well-informed and take actions that concerns them. Moreover, the role of the Woordward and Berstein opened the mind of people about how investigative journalism really works under the big letters and articles in the papers. They showed great patience, dedication, determination, and persistence to their story. They stick to the story from the start until the end, no matter how hard and long it took them to find facts and sources. Also, they...

...cause of cancer mortality (death) in most of the countries in the world. Tobacco use is responsible for nearly 1 in 5 deaths in the world. Because cigarette smoking and tobacco use are acquired behaviors − activities that people choose to do – smoking is the most preventable cause of death in our society. About half of all Americans who keep smoking will die because of the habit. Each year about 480,000 people in the United States die from illnesses related to tobacco use. Smoking cigarettes kills more Americans than alcohol, car accidents, suicide, AIDS, homicide, and illegal drugs combined. Cigarette smoking accounts for at least 30% of all cancer deaths. It’s linked with an increased risk of these cancers: * Lung - Lung cancer is the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells that start off in one or both lungs; usually in the cells that line the air passages. The abnormal cells do not develop into healthy lung tissue; they divide rapidly and form tumors. * Larynx (voice box) - Cancer of the larynx, can also be called laryngeal cancer, can develop in any part of the larynx, but most begins in the glottis. The inner walls of the larynx are lined with cells called squamous cells. Almost all laryngeal cancers begin in these cells. * Oral cavity (mouth, tongue, and lips) – mouth cancer, tongue cancer or lips cancer * Nose and sinuses – sinus or nasal cavity cancer * Pharynx (throat) - Throat cancer refers to cancerous tumors that develop in your throat (pharynx)...

...Oral Cancer Oral Cancer: Who's at Risk? Historically, most of the patients are above 40 years of age at the time of discovery of oral cancer. Aging is an important factor because the immunity diminishes with age as well as there are increased chances for the cells turning from benign to malignant tumor cells. This is further supported by the fact released recently in 2008 which says that oral cancer exists even among the non smokers who are below 50 years of age. Predominantly the cause for oral cancer is attributed to the factors like the use of tobacco, consumption of alcohol and infection by Human Papilloma Virus (HPV). Among all these different causes, tobacco is considered to be the primary culprit although it takes a long time to get precipitated into an oral cancer. Especially the people who are above 50 years of age are widely affected and more than 75% of those people are constant users of tobacco. Tobacco in combination with alcohol is even more harmful and the chances are 15 times more for oral cancer if a person is addictive to both tobacco and alcohol. Recent reports also suggest that the demographics are changing rapidly as the incidence of oral cancer caused by viral infections is increasing day by day. The factors for the cause of oral cancer can be grouped as physical factors, chemical factors and biological factors. Alcohol and tobacco comes under chemical factors. Ultraviolet (UV) rays and x-rays are the major physical factors responsible for causing...

...Medicine: Western Treatment’s link for Treating Cancer Chinese Medicine: Western Treatment’s link for Treating Cancer Today, more and more patients in the western world are discovering alternative treatments in Chinese medicine, successfully fighting the most commonly feared disease in the world: cancer. Patients and doctors, worldwide, have been battling this mysterious “serial killer” for more than a century; and the search for a cure is rather nebulous. However, the use of alternative eastern medicine paired with western is slowly being recognized as cancer treatment’s missing link. Although some western scientists believe in structured, patented treatment, many cancer patients have become skeptical toward such. Western cancer treatment is based on objective studies and practices, including surgery and radiation therapy. Such treatments are costly; in fact, the mortality rates among patients that are uninsured are greater. Most diagnoses are made in the uninsured patient’s later stage of cancer. Therefore, radiation, surgery, and chemotherapy treatment can cost close to eight hundred...

...Oral Cancer: The Quiet One Imagine for a moment being silent. Imagine having the words to say, but no means to make them heard. Try to envision your life without being able to taste your favorite foods, or perhaps never being able to eat them at all, even though they might be readily available. Picture having all the water you could ever desire, but never being able to quench your thirst. It sounds something like hell, doesn’t it? This isn’t just some make believe version of hell; it is a harsh reality of our world. Each year, thousands of people will experience this nightmare for themselves. “Why?” you may ask. It is all caused by an easily detectable form of cancer: oral cancer. When identified early, the disease can be easily treated and rarely requires radiation or chemotherapy. However, very few people actually get checked for oral cancer, despite the fact that it could save hundreds if not thousands of lives each year. One of the least publicized forms of the disease, oral cancer has very few signs or symptoms in its early stages, can easily and rapidly spread to other areas of the body, and has an extremely high mortality rate. In the early stages of oral cancer, there is often no initial pain. It is difficult to detect without a detailed familiarity with your own body or an experienced professional’s examination. Self examinations can be helpful, but since the mouth often has various bumps and lumps appearing and disappearing, the beginnings of oral cancer...

...Tuesday, March 9, 7:30 a.m. -- Denver Nuggets coach George Karl pops in his mouthpiece and puts on his helmet and braces himself for a brutal 15 minutes, but this isn't football. This is cancer radiation. We're at Denver's Swedish Medical Center. The helmet is actually a white, hard-mesh mask that fits to every contour of Karl's big bucket head. It has red crosses all over it, like a hockey goalie's. He lays his 283 pounds on the table and the technicians clamp the mask on hard. How Karl breathes I'll never know. They secure his limbs and ask him to hold a blue plastic donut so no part of him moves. He looks like Hannibal Lecter about to get fried. "It makes you a little claustrophobic," the 58-year-old coach tries to say through the mask. "But what are you gonna do? Leave?" Coaching the wildly talented but wildly uneven Nuggets is hard enough, let alone doing it with throat and neck cancer, but that's what Karl is trying to do. Everybody tells him it's not possible, and today, maybe he's starting to believe them. With only three of his torturous six weeks of treatment done, and the inside of his mouth looking like he just took 100 bites out of a lava-hot pizza slice, and his head throbbing and his eyes hollow, Karl looks like a guy who should be on a stretcher, not an NBA bench. "George, this is only going to get harder," a nurse tells him. "You're not going to feel like working." Clearly, she's never met George Karl. He shows me many things I don't want to see...
