*lad a i BY EVAN THOMAS THREE DECADES ON, MANY, IF NOT MOST, Americans know about Watergate from the movie "All the President's Men." Boiled down to its melodra- matic essentials, the film is a timeless quest story. it shows two young seekers—newspaper reporters handsome enough to be Robert Redford, cool enough to be Dustin Hoffinan, guided by a wizard in a cave (Deep Throat in a garage)—toppling the Evil Empire (Richard Nixon's White House). The filmmaker, Felt at the late Alan Pakula, deftly used lighting to enhance the FBI; Nixon bows out the feel of a Manichaean struggle. The newsroom where the reporters work is always bright, open, a place of truth. Almost everything else is dark, shadowy—nests of liars and prevaricators. How long ago, and how romantic, the story seems. Reporters are not exactly heroes these days. Anonymous sources like Deep Throat are in disrepute, and many large news organizations, including NEWSWEEK, are under fire for their mistakes.
