Richard Nixon said he wanted administration to be "the best chronicled in history". But when Alexander Butterfield disclosed the existence of a voice-activated tapind system to a Senate committee in July 1973, Nixon's White House and its recordings quickly became the most infamous in American history.

Nixon’s secret White House taping system provided the smoking gun that would lead to the unraveling of his administration.
