\nAll the President\u2019s Men is a very important film.\u00a0 It shows historic moments in American history, both in politics and journalism.\u00a0 The film is about two journalists who work for the Washington Post, Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward, who are determined to write a good and accurate story about the break in into the Democratic National Committee\u2019s office in the Watergate Building, also known as the Watergate Scandal.<\/p>\n

These two journalists endlessly searched for answers about what truly happened that night, and came upon many dead ends and many changing statements from people involved.\u00a0 They didn\u2019t give up.\u00a0 They kept searching for answers.\u00a0 They thought it was very important to get this story and to tell the world what happened that night.\u00a0 This movie shows how important the First Amendment right of Freedom of the Press is.<\/p>\n

In this day and age, where there is internet, paparazzi, and people who only care about where Justin Bieber ate for lunch or who Kendall Jenner is dating, freedom of the press can be taken advantage of.\u00a0 Many paparazzi and journalists can invade a celebrity\u2019s personal life for a story.\u00a0 This movie shows that right being used properly.\u00a0 An important event happened, and the journalists searched endlessly for answers, no matter how many times they were told no by the people involved.\u00a0 If freedom of the press wasn\u2019t a constitutional right, Woodward and Bernstein would have been stopped before they even got a decent lead in their story.\u00a0 If they hadn\u2019t pursued the story like they did, Nixon and his re-election committee may have gotten away with the things they did.\u00a0 This movie teaches us that no matter what, never give up on finding the truth and doing what is right, which is a very important lesson everybody needs to learn.\u00a0 This movie shows what true journalism looks like, and that\u2019s very important for people today to see, since there are so many fake and intrusive magazines and blogs out there, claiming to be journalists.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
