Thank you for posting this. I was alive during this time, in my 20s, as a matter of fact, but I remember almost nothing about it. In the early 70s I was stupid enough to consult a psychiatrist for the depression I had, not knowing the terrible caliber of mental health treatment in Miami, FL at the time. I was stuffed full of old-school antipsychotics and, by 1974, misdiagnosed as a schizophrenic and locked up. Many memories never got processed to begin with; the rest got wiped out by the chemicals. It took me some 10 years to rebuild everyday knowledge. A lot of what I now know is from my having read about it or from watching videos.

Fun fact: Lesley Stahl was a CBS newbie correspondent in 1972. She lived in D.C. AT the Watergate. Because her colleagues were on the road, she got the Watergate story, including covering the trials. She and her cameraman were able to catch the only footage of the 5 burglars at a bail reduction hearings because she recognized them when other networks’ reporters didn’t since she’d been assigned to the early hearings.
