All the President's Men made me think about getting in touch with history a little more. It's never been my strong point, but everything that's ever happened is important in some way or another. It's sad that a lot of people in my generation don't know the details of Watergate.
It also made me realize the power of journalism. I think that unless you're a part of the medium of journalism that it tends to be taken for granted by the masses. Journalism is an incredibly powerful thing and I think people who are in its eye (in a negative sense) should shudder at the possibilities of what it can do. After all, if two men can take expose the unforgivable scandals of a president and get him canned, the power of journalism has no limits.
