A New Documentary About An Unusual Watergate Whistleblower

Martha Mitchell was the outspoken wife of Nixon’s attorney general John Mitchell. The press called her “Mighty Mouth.”  She was one of the first people to realize Nixon was connected to Watergate and she told anyone who would listen.  Some believed her, others called her crazy and a drunk. And when she went missing for a few days, she claimed The Whitehouse was behind it. Director/Editor Anne Alvergue and Co-director Debra McClutchy join us to talk about about their new film called "The Martha Mitchell Effect" that tells her story.
