“The Kalb Report” Takes on Journalist Bob
Woodward
Famed journalist Bob Woodward of The Washington Post appeared on
“The Kalb Report,” Nov. 10 where he discussed the state of investigative
journalism, his upcoming book on the war in Iraq and some memories of
the Watergate investigation. Watergate put Woodward, along with Carl Bernstein,
on the journalism map as they exposed a scandal that led to President
Richard Nixon’s resignation.
Asked to assess the current conflict in Iraq, Woodward said, “The
president needs to have his convictions and his determination, but he
also needs to be the voice of realism. He’s caught in the position
of defending what he’s done — and I think he probably feels
pretty strongly it was the right thing to do — and also being able
to change course if necessary. I don’t think there’s any sign
of that.”
