EOTO #3 Reaction Post

 While watching the Journo Hero presentations, I found myself compelled by the presentation on Bob Woodward and Carl Berstein.

Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein were reporters for The Washington Post in the 1970s and famously reported on the Watergate Scandal.

Bob Woodward was born in Illinois on March 26th, 1943. He received his degree at Yale University where he majored in History and English. 

Although Woodward was accepted into Harvard Law School, he decided to pursue a career in journalism instead.

Bob Woodward met Carl Berstein at the Washington Post where they both worked as journalists. The two of them collaborated when the Watergate scandal happened. 

Once they were done reporting on the Watergate scandal the two journalists decided to write a book on the events that had occurred. The book is titled All the President's Men and was published in 1974.

All the President's Men was then made into a movie in 1976 which starred Robert Redford. 

Learning about Bob Woodward and Carl Berstein was very interesting and appealing to me because I personally did not know a lot about the Watergate scandal and learning about Woodward and Berstein makes the situation that occurred a lot less confusing. 

It also was very interesting to learn how a very popular movie was made based on the works of the two.
