Until her death, Martha Mitchell was defamed, discredited, and ridiculed.
criticism Mitchell received for trying to speak out. She was subject to what Smith describes as a “sexist smear campaign” to discredit her claims about the Nixon administration.

Nixon was up for reelection and they didn't need someone mucking that up.” In 1974, two years before her death and one year after she and her estranged husband had separated, Mitchell sat down for an interview with David Frost. In her own words, the whole ordeal was “incredible”; “like reading a James Bond novel. I can’t believe what’s happened to me.” She said CREEP had started hatching plans to sabotage other candidates in 1968 and that she had been “brainwashed and told this is what goes on in campaigns.
