Grace Weng - The President Calling

I listened to the audio clip of "Nixon addressing the Nation regarding Scandal". The way Nixon spoke seemed very honest like he cared about nothing except the good of his country, despite the fact that it had such a huge impact on his career and that he played a big part in the scandal, and uses a lot of phrases to evoke nationalistic feelings to achieve that goal. He tried to push the blame away from himself and make it seem like it wasn't even that big of a deal. It was kind of difficult to listen to this kind of source as it was easy for me to get distracted from listening carefully to the audio clip and took way longer than it should have.
