This is the second of a two part Q&A with former CBS correspondent Roger Mudd. The interview is based on his book "The Place To Be: Washington, CBS, and the Glory Days of Television News." Mr. Mudd talks about allegations that senior CBS executives told correspondents to "go easy" on President Nixon in presenting their analysis following his resignation. He talks about his relationship with the Kennedys, and his coverage of the 1964 Senate filibuster of the Voting Rights Act.
