Colson calls Nixon a conspirator in Watergate coverup
Former White House counsel Charles Colson, now promoting a Colson film based on his conversion, says Nixon helped conceal Watergate. Colson, released 1975 after seven months for Pentagon Papers charges, criticizes Nixon's defense in Frost interviews while praising Carter’s moral stance and donating film proceeds to Prison Fellowship. The film, budgeted at 3 million, aims for a next fall release as an entertainment project.

Hunt blamed as architect of Watergate plot
A new book argues former CIA agent E Howard Hunt packaged and promoted clandestine operations that drew Richard Nixon's White House into Watergate. Raymond Price suggests Hunt acted as an independent entrepreneur rather than a CIA operative, detailing ties to the Hughes organization and the White House plumbers network. Price notes Hunt recruited others with CIA links and states the break ins were approved by prominent leaders for perceived national interests.
