Mallon’s novel is a White House look at Watergate
Blending tragedy and comedy, Mallon’s mesmerizing new novel “Watergate,” tells its tale slant. We never witness the June 17, 1972, break-in at the Democratic National Committee headquarters in the Watergate office-apartment complex in Washington, nor the subsequent Senate hearings, nor the special prosecutor’s investigation of Republican “dirty tricks” and White House cover-ups, nor the breathless newspaper coverage. Instead, we view events from the perspective of President Nixon’s embattled White House and that of his allies.

For intimidated teens, documentary is ‘Bully’ pulpit
When Tyler Long, a 17-year-old high-school student from Murray County, Ga., found himself being verbally abused by his classmates, he did what most teenagers would do: He tried to ignore them, then went to his teachers. But when Long’s complaints fell on deaf ears, he made a tragic decision: He wrote a suicide note and hanged himself in his bedroom. Long’s story is one of several eye-opening tales in “Bully,” a documentary about intimidated teens that seeks to do for child bullying what “An Inconvenient Truth” did for global warming.
