YouTube Description
as posted by the channel"In the case of Watergate, you had a Congress that conducted an investigation that obtained internal tapes, and that made all the difference in the world. And now you have a president who has control of both houses of Congress, and you have a Congress, the Republican Party, that is completely servile," Marty Baron, a former Washington Post executive editor, tells David Frum.
On this week's episode of "The David Frum Show," Baron explores the relationship between the press and Congress in the 1970s and today.
