Der Ausschuss förderte Kerninformationen zutage, die erwiesen, dass die Einbrecher angewiesen waren, in das Hauptquartier des Democratic National Committee einzubrechen, um es zu verwanzen, und direkt vom Committee to Re-elect the President, Richard Nixons Political Action Committee zur Wiederwahl als US-Präsident, angewiesen worden waren. Aufgrund der Informationen, die der Ausschuss sammelte, wurden 40 Regierungsbeamte entlassen und diverse von Nixons Beratern wegen Behinderung der Justiz und anderer Verbrechen verurteilt. Aufgrund der Arbeit des Ausschusses begann der US-Kongress das Impeachment-Verfahren gegen Richard Nixon, welches unmittelbar zu seinem Rücktritt führte. Die Mitglieder im Watergate Committee waren: * Sam Ervin (Demokrat – North Carolina), Vorsitzender * Howard Baker (Republikaner – Tennessee), ranking member * Edward Gurney (Republikaner – Florida) * Daniel Inouye (Demokrat – Hawaii) * Joseph Montoya (Demokrat – New Mexico) * Herman Talmadge (Demokrat – Georgia) * Lowell P. Weicker (Republikaner – Connecticut) Der Ausschuss hatte zwei Chef-Berater: Sam Dash für die Demokraten und Fred Thompson für die Republikaner. Die Anhörungen begannen am 17. Mai 1973, der Ausschuss veröffentlichte seinen siebenbändigen Bericht mit 1250 Seiten am 27. Juni 1974. Er trug den Titel Report on Presidential Campaign Activities. (de)

American print news media focused the nation's attention on the issue with hard-hitting investigative reports, while television news outlets brought the drama of the hearings to the living rooms of millions of American households, broadcasting the proceedings live for two weeks in May 1973. The public television network PBS broadcast the hearings from gavel to gavel on more than 150 national affiliates. Working under committee chairman Sam Ervin, the committee played a pivotal role in gathering evidence that would lead to the indictment of forty administration officials and the conviction of several of Richard Nixon's aides for obstruction of justice and other crimes. Its revelations later prompted the impeachment process against Nixon himself, which featured the introduction of three articles of impeachment by the Democratic-led House Committee on the Judiciary. Watergate led to Nixon's resignation on August 9, 1974. (en)
  • Lo United States Senate Watergate Committee , noto ufficialmente come Select Committee on Presidential Campaign Activities, è stato un comitato speciale istituito dal Senato degli Stati Uniti (S.Res. 60) nel 1973, per indagare sullo scandalo Watergate, con il potere di indagare sull'irruzione presso la sede del Comitato nazionale democratico (DNC) presso il complesso degli uffici del Watergate a Washington, e su qualsiasi successiva copertura di attività criminali, come "tutte le altre condotte illegali, improprie o non etiche verificatesi durante le controverse elezioni presidenziali del 1972, compreso lo spionaggio politico e le pratiche di finanziamento delle campagne". La stampa statunitense focalizzò l'attenzione della nazione sulla questione con rapporti investigativi incisivi, mentre i notiziari televisivi portarono le udienze nei salotti di milioni di famiglie, trasmettendo gli atti in diretta per due settimane nel maggio 1973. La rete televisiva pubblica PBS trasmise le audizioni irradiandole su oltre 150 televisioni nazionali. Lavorando sotto la guida del presidente Sam Ervin (del partito democratico del North Carolina), il comitato svolse un ruolo fondamentale nella raccolta di prove che avrebbero portato all'incriminazione di quaranta funzionari dell'amministrazione e alla condanna di diversi collaboratori di Richard Nixon per ostacolo della giustizia e altri crimini. Le sue rivelazioni spinsero il processo di impeachment contro lo stesso Nixon, dall'ottobre 1973 all'agosto 1974, caratterizzato dall'introduzione di tre atti di incriminazione da parte della Camera dei rappresentanti, che portarono alle sue dimissioni.
