These two men were reporters of "The Washinton Post", who uncovered the mystery of the Nixon skandel to winning the presidential elction. They spent many nights and days trying to uncover the mess being thrown st them, even when they didn't know where to turn. They kept going for the story and didn't stop till the case was settled and president Nixon ened up resigning. But how did these guys start off as such good kournalists? Well I'll take you through how both of them stared out in the newspaper, blogging bsiness.
First we have Bob Woodward, whos real, extended name is Robert Upshur "Bob" Woodward. He was born on Illonis on March 26, 1943. He started his writing in Yale University. He was a creative writter, and accepted a job at "The Washington Post" after being denide the spot of lieutenant. Harry M. Rosenfeld th post's metroplitan editor, gave him a two-week trial but did not hire him because of his lack of journalistic experience. After a year he was hired as a Post re[orter on september, 1971. that is how he got started out in the "Washington Post".
Second is Carl Bernstein. He was born on February 1944. He got started out at the "washington post" by graduating from university of maryland, college park. He has gone through alot, including being arrested for drunk driving. But that idnt stop him in getting into the washinton post. he still did the story and made history by spotting and first suspecting Nixon's skandel.
These two men helped and actually stopped a man from cheating his way to the top. They dedicated their work to the watergate scandel, eventhough their lives were sorta in danger. They didn't take no for an answer when asking questions and persecered to get the truth.
