The Nixon tapes
New Yorker columnist Paul Slansky writes: One of the happiest things about life in America is the certainty that, every year or two, a fresh batch of Nixon tapes will be released to the public. In the past few weeks, students of the thirty-seventh President have been busy working their way through four hundred and twenty-six more hours of very special Presidential conversations, bringing the total to 1,779. Slansky has sieved thirteen quizz questions out of those hours of talk. Can you answer this one?:
True or false: Nixon suggested that the famous photograph of him standing next to Elvis Presley was a fake.
I won’t give the shocking answer away. You’ll need to read Slansky’s article. (Hint: It’s question 5, and the answer is at the bottom of the page).
Can anyone get me the Nixon tapes from December 21 1970? IF you can locate the tapes from December 21 1970, please contact me and direct me to the listening room or place to order all tapes from that date. Thank You in advance
I am happy to pass on any useful information to Dr Carpenter....
