...similar pattern emerges as the Watergate hearings proceed. Some, like Jeb Magruder and John Dean, seem swamped by feelings of guilt and self-recrimination. Others, like John Mitchell, gruffly deny any wrongdoing (as they see it), and seem quite willing to rape the Constitution again at their next convenience. Meanwhile, the White House, which once espoused "benign neglect" (guess who thought that one up) at the expense of our black population, now espouses benign neglect with regard to the Watergate hearings...

Through leaks and innuendo, his enemies have tried to discredit his testimony in advance by describing him as a craven, cowering man who is testifying only to save himself from prison where he fears homosexual rape because of his blond-boyish good looks. Dean denies having such fears and has used his own attorneys and associates to portray himself as being interested only in getting the truth out.

...into separate bedroom closets in his mother's Santa Cruz home. Then Kemper, 24, climbed into his car and drove east until he reached Pueblo, Colo., where he placed a call to the Santa Cruz sheriff's office, confessing the crimes. He also is accused of the rape-murder-mutilations of seven girls who had disappeared over the past year, including a Fresno State coed whose head had been found on a deserted mountainside in August 1972 and a college girl whose skull the police unearthed in the backyard of Kemper's mother's home after...

...Brando not only exuded animal magnetism but also conveyed the inarticulate dignity of an animal. In the current production, James Farentino seems like a deliberate lowbrow, a slob who relishes being a slob.
