    I remember the Nixon years. Compared to today Richard was a saint. The corruption has done nothing but get worse. Thanks for sharing.

    How things have changed. The interviewer asks a question, not one 2 minutes long, then lets the interviewee answer the question, without constant interruption. Then he uses their words to continue, not pursuing his own agenda, and keeps the interview going to where he wants it to go. Journalists seeking answers not sound bites.

      Facts! The watergate "so called" scandal was a crock of 💩blown way out of proportion. Nixon and his crew got caught for doing what most politicians have done since Jefferson, and are still doing today! At least Nixon didn't steal an election like Kennedy and Biden did. The hypocrisy by the left.

    My dad was a die hard Nixon supporter. When the interviewed Nixon was asked to compare himself to kennedy and stated that he had no money or connections and had clawed his was up through sheer determination I realized that that was what attracted my dad to Nixon. My dad was, for the most part, a self made man. Even though my dad was a right wing reactionary, watching this made me feel better because even though my dad died in 2009 and would have had no idea how our country has gone. My right wing dad would never support a failure rich kid like Trump.
