Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

The ideal answer should:
a. Explain that the Watergate scandal involved a media investigation, led by Washington Post reporters Woodward and Bernstein, into the arrest of five men for trying to burglarize the Democratic Party headquarters, which eventually led to Nixon stonewalling congressional investigations, threatening the Washington Post, and eventually resigning from office.
b.Identify that although this was not the first presidential scandal to receive media coverageearlier ones included the impeachment of Andrew Johnson and the Teapot Dome scandalWatergate, more than any other, drove a wedge between the president and the press.
c. Analyze how Watergate demonstrated the professional rewards to be gained by exposing scandal and how that led to a change in the norms of White House news coverage,bringing media deference to an end, increasing revelation and amplification of scandals by the media (such as Ford's pardon of Nixon and the Iran-Contra scandal), and making the shortcomings of a president's personal life fodder for news coverage.
