"Mr. Pinkman, while there are media outlets on a par with the Washington Post in America," he asked, "do you know why I specifically sought you out?"
"Why?"
Pinkman collected his thoughts, his face showing confusion.
"Because the Washington Post once exposed the Watergate scandal!"
"Inspector David, what exactly are you trying to say!"
Hearing about the Watergate scandal, Pinkman was instantly shaken.
Indeed, the media that reported the Watergate scandal at the time was none other than the Washington Post, which, after the event, had established a heavyweight status in the industry!
"It's nothing. I know what you're worried about, but I can assure you, no one will retaliate against you. And as for revealing a presidential scandal of such magnitude, this could be a new era's Watergate for your newspaper. Do you understand!"
"Can you guarantee the White House won't take action against me?"
"Of course, I can swear to God!"
