Bob Woodward: érase una vez un joven espía, por Roberto Bardini Bob Woodward Cierta noche de junio de 1970, un joven teniente de marina fue a llevar un paquete con información confidencial al subsuelo del ala oeste de la Casa Blanca. Tenía 27 años y trabajaba en inteligencia naval. El oficial tenía largo rato en la sala de espera cuando entró un señor de aspecto distinguido -unos 25 o 30 años mayor que él- y se sentó. Pasaron varios minutos y ninguno hablaba. Para romper el hielo, el teniente se presentó: - Bob Woodward. Siguió una breve conversación. De 1965 a 1970, Woodward sirvió como operador de radio del buque USS Wright. A tres décadas y media de aquel episodio, Woodward tiene 61 años, es director adjunto de The Washington Post para temas de investigación y autor de varios libros. Lo que Woodward nunca ha revelado es su propia vinculación con varios organismos de inteligencia antes de dedicarse al periodismo.

Escándalo Watergate El escándalo del Watergate (o Watergate) fue un escándalo político en los Estados Unidos que ocurrió en 1972 durante el mandato de Richard Nixon, que culminó con la imputación de cargos a algunos consejeros muy cercanos al presidente, y con la dimisión de éste, el 9 de agosto de 1974. Síntesis[editar] Nixon y su equipo conspiraron para ocultar el allanamiento solo seis días después de los hechos. Después de dos años reuniendo pruebas contra el entorno del presidente, que incluía a miembros de su equipo testificando contra él en una investigación del Senado de los Estados Unidos, se reveló que Nixon tenía un sistema de grabación de cintas magnéticas en sus oficinas y que había grabado una gran cantidad de conversaciones dentro de la Casa Blanca. Tras una serie de batallas legales, la Corte Suprema de los Estados Unidos decidió de forma unánime que Nixon debía entregar las cintas; él al fin cedió.

Howl by Allen Ginsberg : The Poetry Foundation [poem] : Find Poems and Poets. Discover Poetry. For Carl Solomon I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving hysterical naked, dragging themselves through the negro streets at dawn looking for an angry fix, angelheaded hipsters burning for the ancient heavenly connection to the starry dynamo in the machinery of night, who poverty and tatters and hollow-eyed and high sat up smoking in the supernatural darkness of cold-water flats floating across the tops of cities contemplating jazz, who bared their brains to Heaven under the El and saw Mohammedan angels staggering on tenement roofs illuminated, who passed through universities with radiant cool eyes hallucinating Arkansas and Blake-light tragedy among the scholars of war, who were expelled from the academies for crazy & publishing obscene odes on the windows of the skull, who cowered in unshaven rooms in underwear, burning their money in wastebaskets and listening to the Terror through the wall, who studied Plotinus Poe St. Moloch! Moloch! Moloch! Visions! Dreams!
Watergate scandal The Watergate scandal was a major political scandal that occurred in the United States in the 1970s as a result of the June 17, 1972, break-in at the Democratic National Committee (DNC) headquarters at the Watergate office complex in Washington, D.C., and the Nixon administration's attempted cover-up of its involvement. When the conspiracy was discovered and investigated by the U.S. Congress, the Nixon administration's resistance to its probes led to a constitutional crisis.[1] The term Watergate has come to encompass an array of clandestine and often illegal activities undertaken by members of the Nixon administration. Those activities included such "dirty tricks" as bugging the offices of political opponents and people of whom Nixon or his officials were suspicious. The affair began with the arrest of five men for breaking and entering into the DNC headquarters at the Watergate complex on June 17, 1972.
