In the run-up to the 1972 elections, Washington Post reporter covers what seems to be a minor break-in at the Democratic Party National headquarters. He is surprised to find top lawyers already on the defense case, and the discovery of names and addresses of White House fund organizers on the accused further arouses his suspicions. The editor of the Post is prepared to run with the story and assigns Woodward and to it. They find the trail leading higher and higher in the White House.
Factual account of investigative journalists and of the Washington Post whose reporting of the Watergate break-in eventually led to the resignation of , 37th President of the United States. The film focuses on the period from the break-in on June 17, 1972 to Nixons re-election in November later than year. Their perseverance - and the support of their editors - revealed that the break-in at the Watergate office complex was only one small part of a much larger network of intelligence gathering activities, many of which were illegal. The story also focuses on the role of Woodwards now legendary secret source dubbed Deep Throat (since identified as FBI Deputy Director ) and the encouragement he provided when the journalists hit roadblocks in their investigation.
