You know, Watergate was a nothingburger compared to the stuff that goes on every day now. Oooh, they used secret service to tap a phone line without a warrant! Oh no! It's not like that's literally done every second of every day now. Crediting Watergate sleuths is like crediting some random arborist for "discovering" that you can cut down trees for wood. Well, duh, everyone knows that, and its being done a million times a day!
Woodward and Bernstein were just lucky, too. They were never the brilliant detectives that they're made out to be, and that's evident by what utter hacks they've been ever since.
