Description
Uncover the truth behind the Watergate scandal and the lies that shaped history.
A delusion is a strong belief despite evidence to the contrary. The Watergate delusion, embraced by millions, is that Bob Woodward and the left confronted the malevolent Nixon administration and saved democracy. But the actual evidence demonstrates that Watergate was not a shining example of democracy, and Bob Woodward's place among journalistic immortals is a grift.
The Truth About Watergate demonstrates that Nixon's enemies on the right initially had the means, motive, and opportunity. It exposes Woodward's Big Lie about Alexander Haig and its seismic implications, challenging the synergistic mythologies of Bob Woodward and "Deep Throat." Discover the extraordinary lies and liars of Watergate and the fervent motives of The Washington Post for banishing revisionist books to the conspiracy theory ghetto.
