Trivia

The title is based on an allusion to the Watergate Affair from President Richard Nixon's administration that began with the break-in at Democratic National Headquarters at the Watergate Hotel in June, 1972 and ended with President Nixon's resignation on August 8, 1974. Subsequent scandals have gained the dubious title of (blank)-gate like "Iran-gate".
