Originally, I decided to watch this movie after reading a review that someone had posted. They had mentioned that the "movie is as accurate about the processes used by investigative reporters". The movie started off with a heist with the main characters also getting caught by the cops. You would expect this to usually happen towards the end of the movie. It goes on to show many false leads, denials and even evasions that all eventually lead up to President Nixon’s resignation. However, I do not think the think was focusing more on the plot rather the details and how the journalists had to dig deep to find evidence. They could not take everything at face value because people could be redirecting the blame towards someone else. This was an important idea because many times people today tend to just believe whatever they see without actually taking a moment and trying to determine how much is actually true.[1 image, 1 link, 1 quotation, 158 words]
