“Discovery Channel and award-winning actor/director Robert Redford presented a landmark television event looking back at Watergate – the original game changer of American politics.

Redford, who served as producer of the iconic 1976 film All the President’s Men, brought the story of Watergate to the screen with authenticity, power and precise detail while doing justice to a seminal chapter in American history.
