Article · Français
Robert Upshur Woodward, dit Bob Woodward, né le 26 mars 1943 à Geneva dans l'Illinois, est un journaliste américain. Il étudie à l'université Yale. Engagé comme reporter en 1971 au Washington Post, il devient célèbre pour avoir enquêté en 1972, avec son collègue Carl Bernstein, sur le scandale du Watergate. Leurs articles entraînent l'ouverture d'une enquête sénatoriale, durant laquelle le président Richard Nixon refuse de fournir les bandes audio de la Maison-Blanche, prétextant que celles-ci n'existent plus. Son mensonge est découvert quelque temps après, obligeant dès lors le président Nixon à démissionner de son poste en 1974. Le Washington Post reçoit en 1973 le prix Pulitzer du service public pour les articles de Woodward et Bernstein sur l'affaire. Dans le film Les Hommes du président (1976) d'Alan J. Pakula, adaptation de leur livre d'investigation de même nom publié en 1974, le rôle de Woodward est interprété par Robert Redford et celui de Bernstein par Dustin Hoffman.
