Question 11 options:

The press was opposed to Nixon's policies so Woodward and Bernstein wrote an exposé of his behavior.

This was a quiet period in both the domestic and foreign arenas, so the case got a lot of attention.

The Democrats were the party in power in Congress and they wanted to remove Nixon.
