  • Krogh & the Watergate Scandal
    Krogh & the Watergate Scandal Egil “Bud” Krogh was a young lawyer who worked for the Nixon administration in the late 1960s and early 1970s as deputy assistant to the president. Military analyst Daniel Ellsberg leaked the “Pentagon Papers,” which contained sensitive information regarding the United States’ progress in the Vietnam War. President Nixon himself tasked Krogh with stopping leaks of top-secret information. And Nixon’s Assistant for Domestic Affairs, John Ehrlichman, instructed Krogh to investigate and discredit Ellsberg, telling Krogh that the leak was damaging to national security. Krogh and another staffer assembled a covert team that became known as the “plumbers” (to stop leaks), which was broadly supervised by Ehrlichman. In September 1971, the plumbers’ first break-in was at the office of Ellsberg’s psychiatrist; they were looking for documents that would discredit Ellsberg based on mental health. Reflecting on the meeting in which the break-in was proposed and approved, Krogh later wrote, “I listened intently. At no time did I or anyone else there question whether the operation was necessary, legal or moral. Convinced that we were responding legitimately to a national security crisis, we focused instead on the operational details: who would do what, when and where.” The break-in, which was illegal, was also unproductive. Nothing was found to discredit Ellsberg. Importantly, the ties between this break-in and Nixon were much more direct and easy to establish than the ties between Nixon and the Watergate break-in. Krogh later pled guilty to his role in the break-in and was sentenced to two-to-six years in prison.

Now Marvin Kalb, himself 90 but acute as ever, has written a memoir of his early career, especially his years as Moscow correspondent for CBS News in the direst period of the Cold War.

Book Review Essay The Making of the Attorney General: John Mitchell and the Crimes of Watergate Reconsidered Gerald Caplan* I. INTRODUCTION Shortly after I resigned my position as General Counsel of the District of Columbia Metropolitan Police Department in 1971, I was startled to receive a two-page letter from Attorney General John Mitchell. I was not a Department of Justice employee, and Mitchell's acquaintance with me was largely second-hand. The contents were surprising. Mitchell generously lauded my rather modest role "in developing an effective and professional law enforcement program for the District of Columbia." Beyond this, he added, "Your thoughtful suggestions have been of considerable help to me and my colleagues at the Department of Justice." The salutation was, "Dear Jerry," and the signature, "John." I was elated. I framed the letter and hung it in my office.

TWITTER Edward Kosner EMAIL Oct. 17, 2012 3:14 pm ET PERMALINK SAVE PRINT TEXT Raoul Felder is a macher—a brash operator, the model for the feral New York divorce lawyers called "bombers." A Brooklyn boy, he is the baby brother of the legendary songwriter Doc Pomus, the crony of comedian Jackie Mason, and a quote machine whose number was in every tabloid reporter's Rolodex back when reporters had Rolodexes. His new book, "Reflections in a Mirror," comes with a sly disclaimer tucked into a paragraph on page 10: "Memory or lack of memory caused me to invent some of [the story] or forced me to lie about the rest." But that hasn't kept him from delivering an entertaining if ramshackle memoir full of moving vignettes of family anguish and youthful striving, plus celebrity tattle about his roster of clients and their bizarre marital messes. Like any master litigator, Mr. Felder has a fondness for the sound of his own voice. Compelling chapters of his book are interrupted by grandiloquent riffs and inane shaggy- dog stories about sharing an elevator with Yankee slugger Reggie Jackson or being ignored at a party by Barbra Streisand and the Broadway producer David Merrick.

  • How Courageous Followers Stand up to Destructive Leadership a Thesis
    Breaking Toxic Triangles: How Courageous Followers stand up to Destructive Leadership A Thesis Presented to the Swinburne University of Technology in fulfilment of the requirements for the award of: DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY 2020 by Alain Marc Mario de Sales Principal Co-Ordinating Supervisor : Dr. Samir Shrivastava Associate Supervisor : Prof. Christopher Selvarajah Associate Supervisor : Prof. Timothy Moore Abstract Instances of Destructive Leadership abound. It is a growing phenomenon with very real consequences and yet it remains under-researched. The scant work that exists on Destructive Leadership tends to focus on leaders and generally discounts the role of followers. Responding to calls for models which recognise that outcomes are often co-created by leaders and followers, this study explores how followers stand up to leaders to mitigate destructive outcomes. This study anchors its arguments to the Toxic Triangle framework (Padilla 2013), which focuses on the confluence of Destructive Leaders, Susceptible Followers, and Conducive Environments. The insights from this study augment the Toxic Triangle by adding Courageous Followers to the framework. Using Power and Structuration theories as theoretical lenses, the study analyses the discursive actions undertaken by Courageous Followers to shift the power balance while attempting to collapse the Toxic Triangle. The study analyses twelve longitudinal episodes from three cases of Destructive Leadership that spanned decades. Given that the cases entailed shifts in power balance and the fact that discourse and power are said to be indistinguishable from each other and mutually constitute each other, the study adopted Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) as a method. CDA explored the tension between agency and structure as the power balance shifted.

EMAIL PERMALINK PHOTO: GETTY IMAGES By Edward Kosner Oct. 6, 2019 4:26 pm ET SAVE PRINT TEXT 9 Thomas Edison was one. So were Harry Houdini, Herbert Hoover, W.C. Fields, Walt Disney, Benjamin Franklin, Jackie Robinson, Walter Winchell, Thomas Wolfe, Jack London, Knute Rockne, Harry Truman, John Wayne, Warren Buffett and many more familiar names. Besides being illustrious Americans, these men shared a calling—growing up, they were newsboys, delivering newspapers to subscribers or, more colorfully, hawking them on the streets for a couple of pennies, real money in those days. In their time, newsboys (girls were rare) were American icons—symbols of unflagging industry and tattered, barefoot, shivering objects of pity. They had their own argot and better news judgment than many editors, because they had to size up the appeal of every edition to determine how many copies to buy from the publisher. Some used hawking as a cover for picking pockets, but most were as honest as they could afford to be.
