DOES ANYONE know any good sources.

Answer 9

Both affected public opinion negatively. Watergate showed the government was dishonest, and Vietnam was so unpopular people attacked government buildings.

The word 'Watergate' specifically refers to the name of the luxury hotel in Washington D.C. On the 17th of June 1972, five burglars broke into the offices of the Democratic Party's National Committee. Political investigations began in February 1973 when the Senate established a Committee to investigate the scandal. In 1974 The House of Representatives authorised the impeachment proceedings against the then President Richard Nixon. He was forced to resign on August 9th 1974. The Watergate scandal was exposed mainly by the tireless efforts of two intrepid journalists of 'The Washington Post,' Bod Woodward and Carl Bernstein. The single most important lesson learnt from the 'Watergate' scandal was that a free press was necessary to protect democracy. The Freedom of Information Act of 1986 was a direct consequence of the exposure of the Watergate scandal.

Do you get it?

Answer 10

Please don't copy me word for word.. I'm just hoping you understand that the people of the United States had a hard time trusting the government after each event

Answer 11

why did they break in
More explanation on why the president resigned please.

Answer 12

No this is for me, i need to know what the Watergate scandal is

Answer 13

The president resigned because it was under his order to break in and steal secrets.

Answer 14

I think that Watergate also had some positive effects on people. The fact that Richard Nixon, our corrupt leader at the time, did not get away with all he did says something about our system of government. There are checks and balances that have been put in place in the Constitution and they seemed to have worked. I think that may have led some to believe in the Constitution and have a greater sense that it is a great document and that it works.

Answer 15

thank u soooo much
my whole assignment is this:

Answer 16

Use an Internet search engine (such as Google, Yahoo or Bing) to find sources that would help you answer the question. Try to use the advanced search option to limit the number of results.

You must choose four sources to complete this portion of the assignment.
Two on Watergate
Two on the Vietnam War
You must have at least two different types of sources. Your sources could include a news or magazine article, a topic website, an online encyclopedia, or video.
Submit the following information:
What search engine did you use?
What words did you type into the search engine to get your results?
What sources did you choose? Provide the web address and title of each source




Choose one Vietnam War and one Watergate source from Part 2 and complete the following:

Write two or three sentences to summarize each source.
Write what you think the purpose of the source is and who the original audience would have been.
Write at least one sentence explaining how the source helps you explain the way the event affected the American public’s opinion of the government.
Choose a quote from the source that you would use as evidence to support your answer to the question.
Example of Part 3:

Summary: This source is from a newspaper article and explains how citizens reacted to the draft for the Vietnam War by burning their draft cards and protesting on college campuses.
Audience: The original audience would have been any citizen of the U.S. who read the newspaper in the 1960s.
Purpose: The purpose of the article is to explain methods that people took in the U.S. to show their dislike for the draft.
Explanation of use: This source could be used as evidence to prove that people were displaying their opinions to the government and that a percentage of people did not agree with the government’s actions regarding Vietnam.
Quote: A quote that I would use is: “Young men were burning their draft cards in front of cameras taking footage for the evening news.”
