What role did the Washington post play in revealing the Watergate scandal?
'The connection between the break-in and the re-election campaign committee was highlighted by media coverage. In particular, investigative coverage byTime, The New York Times, and especially The Washington Post, fueled focus on the event. The coverage dramatically increased publicity and consequent political repercussions. Relying heavily upon anonymous sources, Post reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein uncovered information suggesting that knowledge of the break-in, and attempts to cover it up, led deep into the Justice Department, the FBI, the CIA, and even the White House.Chief among the Post's anonymous sources was an individual they had nicknamed Deep Throat (who was later revealed in 2005 to be former Deputy Director of the FBI William Mark Felt, Sr.) It was the informant 'Deep Throat' who met secretly with Woodward, and told him of Howard Hunt's involvement with the Watergate break-in, and that the rest of the White House staff regarded the stake in Watergate extremely high.'Deep Throat' also warned Woodward that the FBI wanted to know where he and the other reporters were getting the information which was uncovering even a wider web of crimes than first disclosed. In one of their last meetings, all of which took place at an underground parking garage somewhere in Washington DC at 2:00 AM, Deep Throat cautioned Woodward that he might be followed and not to trust their phone conversations.'Conclusion: The media played a massive role in almost impeaching one of the most powerful men in the World and most certainly the roles played by 'Post' reporters Woodward and Bernstein were instrumental in forcing President Nixon to resign...Information taken directly from Wikipedia, see link below.

Is there a musical about the Watergate scandal?
Yes, Virginia, there is a musical about Richard M. Noxon and the Watergate scandal . . . . or at least there was once upon a time. In the early fall of 1981, auditions for a show, which may or may not have been finished at the time (though the scripts from which we read appeared to be complete), were conducted in Atlanta, Georgia, on the Alliance Theater stage. It was to be called Watergate, the Musical. Those for whom actors and singers performed, whose names are lost to history, indicated that they planned a full equity production that would open "out of town" and then proceed to Broadway, sometime in 1982-83. How nearly those expectations were ultimately met is unknown but, subsequently, a woman named Cybelle Pomeroy claimed to have writen a musical play called Watergate! The Musical. She held auditions in Baltimore, but may or may not have managed to get the production on stage.
