Buchanan Suggests Double Standard
White House speechwriter Patrick J. Buchanan argues Democrats used a double standard over paid spies in Nixon's 1972 campaign. He notes Joe McGinnis infiltrated Nixon circles in 1968 and wrote a best seller, while Republicans faced praise for similar actions. The Watergate hearings continued without live TV as networks ended broadcast deals.

He argues that city-wide voting prevents black representation and that precinct voting would elect black council members in at least one or two precincts currently at 95 percent black. The all-white council allegedly misrepresents the community.
