The Senate appointed a select committee chaired by Sam Irvin to investigate and their hearing were broadcast on net network TV for about three months and followed by much of the public. Later, the House began preliminaries to consider impeachment of the President.
During the Watergate scandal, Nixon reacted to the investigations by delivering 3 separate speeches. Although his speeches were meant for damage control, the scandal ultimately cost him his reputation. He resigned in August of 1974.
Most people were shocked and outraged by the Watergate scandal, as it revealed deep corruption at the highest levels of government. Public trust in political institutions plummeted, leading to widespread disillusionment with the presidency and the political system. Many citizens demanded accountability and transparency, culminating in President Nixon's resignation in 1974. The scandal also sparked greater media scrutiny and a more skeptical public attitude toward government officials.

When Watergate first happened the true importance of what happened wasn't known by people. It seemed that 4 men broke into the office and there was no evidence as to how far up the chain of command the scandal went. Information came out bit by bit and little by little. The world reaction was worse. I was living in Germany at the time and saw the price of gold fall which meant my dollar went from 3.50 marks per dollar to 1.50 per dollar almost over night. After it was understood what Nixon had done and his part he was forced to resign and Ford replaced him. Some of the problems today in Congress and the Executive branch are a result of Watergate. I think the worse effect of Watergate was the psychological damage. Trust was lost between the government and the people and more people became hardened against the government.

Chemistry is the branch of science that deals with the study of elements and substances, their properties, composition, and how they interact and react with each other. It explores the structure of matter at the molecular and atomic levels.
Considering all the scandals which have happened since, I think a crooked quiz show would be a very minor one today. People would be disgusted, of course, but they would not be nearly as outraged.
