Evan Davis, formerly a senior member of the House Judiciary Committee Impeachment Inquiry Staff, talked about the Watergate inquiry 40 years previously. He talked about the U.S. Supreme Court case United States v. Nixon where President Nixon claimed executive privilege over his Oval Office tape recordings which were sought by the Watergate special prosecutor, Leon Jaworski. He was interviewed by Steve Scully by video link from New York City before and after a re-airing of the July 8, 1974, Supreme Court case. The audio recording of the court’s oral argument was aired with still images of the participants shown as they spoke. close
