Watergate and press scrutiny echo in Pennsylvanian view
Northwestern Pennsylvania residents view Watergate as news worth questioning despite National Justice Department attempts at whitewashing. The piece cites U S Senator Hungly Scott calling the scandal of interest mainly to McGovern and the media, while editors and reporters persist in digging for facts and accountability. Political year rhetoric mirrors concerns over a Russia trade deal and demagogic claims without proof.

Q and A discuss lease rights for landlord entry and keys. If a lease reserves entry for repairs, manager and workers may enter for stated purposes.
