The President explains that he was under the impression that both the people responsible for communication with the prosecutor, White House Counsel John Wesley Dean and the President's Assistant for Domestic Affairs John Ehrlichman, were keeping the prosecutor informed. Another journalist asks the President whether he felt he owned an apology to American citizens with regard to the Cambodian bombing.
