Great general overview of the terms and people involved in the scandal Shauna. The ordeal being so widespread, it is difficult to cover all of the terms and figures involved in a 600 word essay. However, you do a wonderful job of including the most important pieces of information. I chose this project option as well but I noticed you give more information regarding some of the important figures involved, such as the two reporters. You also focused more on specific terms like wiretapping and espionage which give the reader a clearer image of the criminal activities committed. Your explanation of the FBI and CIA also assist in explaining how serious the situation was. In hindsight, an important figure I omitted that you included was Judge Sirica who played an important role in pushing for further investigation of the conspicuous event. Without his urging the dishonorable actions of those involved may have gone completely unnoticed and unpunished. “I pledge” (Word Count 157)
