What did the president know, and when did he know it?

Remembering Howard Baker

http://www.pbs.org/newshour/rundown/remembering-howard-baker-whose-famous-question-embodied-watergate-hearings/

Howard Baker’s question sliced to the core of Watergate: “What did the president know and when did he know it?”

Repeated over and again in the senator’s mild Tennessee drawl, those words guided Americans through the tangle of Watergate characters and charges playing daily on TV to focus squarely on Richard Nixon and his role in the cover-up.

Baker’s famous question has been dusted off for potential White House scandals big and small ever since.
