It is early 1972, right after the Watergate burglaries unfolded. Richard Nixon’s administration is working hard to ensure that the upcoming election is a success and Nixon will be re-elected as president. The Washington Post is furiously working toward their next biggest report, trying to connect the recent criminal activities to the suspiciously close election. Delegates in this Joint Crisis Committee will either portray one of Nixon’s administration members, or they will help uncover some mysteries as a reporter of the Washington Post. How will Nixon’s colleagues help keep down the press? What will the Washington Post retaliate with? Is re-election out of the question for Nixon? Will the Washington Post ensure that re-election will not happen? It is all up to you.

Welcome to The Scandal of the Century: Watergate.
