Like Mallory, it concerned me how easily Woodstein was able to call and either get secretaries of very high ranking White House officials or even the officials themselves. And the way people would just give up information on where someone was amazed me. You would think that someone who was the Special Council to the President wouldn't be able to be tracked down with the ease of just "oh he's actually in this office right now, let me give you that number." It seems really odd to me. -Kelly Wuyscik | Like Mallory, it concerned me how easily Woodstein was able to call and either get secretaries of very high ranking White House officials or even the officials themselves.

| + | The officials, hell! Maybe this is just my reaction to a post-9/11 world, but would Bob Woodward REALLY have been able to call THE WHITE HOUSE ITSELF directly back then? -Cash Nelson | ||
My issue with the movie is that the film portrayed Woodward and Bernstein as the heroes of the investigation: the only guys willing to bring down the high-ranking bullies of the government. Although the film alludes to the on-going special investigation by the Grand Jury, "Woodstein" seem to get all the credit for the discovery of the cover-up and the ultimate downfall of President Nixon.~Juliann Boyles | My issue with the movie is that the film portrayed Woodward and Bernstein as the heroes of the investigation: the only guys willing to bring down the high-ranking bullies of the government.
