President Nixon's Watergate Scandal began June 17, 1972. The Watergate scandal is the illegal activity that took place at the headquarters of the Democratic National Committee in the Watergate Hotel complex in Washington D.C. Five men were caught breaking into the national headquarters of the democratic fund and arrested on spot. The names of the men include: Bernard Baker, Virgilio Gonzalez, Eugenio Martinez, James W.
McCord Junior and Frank Sturgis. Others accused were E. Howard Hunt and G. Gordan Liddy. All men were convicted, including Nixon.
The article "The Watergate Scandal" by Staff Writer and the article "Watergate Scandal" by an unknown writer talked about the same thing except that the second article gets to the main details specifically. The organization on the second article was also very neat and organized by formating what happened in order.

When Ford did not have a chance to be reelected due to his pardon of Nixon I felt pleasure:P
