What I learned investigating Nixon
Legendary investigative journalist Bob Woodward shares the inside story of President Richard Nixon's downfall, and what was learned from the notorious White House tapes. In his 2016 TEDxMidAtlantic talk, he warns that we are entering a new era of secrecy that harkens back to Nixon's days. We think we are resilient, he says, but if we are infected with hate and lack of knowledge, we could lose our democracy.
