Why are scandals named with "-gate" by the media?
I know the first such scandal was probably Watergate, but that makes sense since the location of the scandal was at the Watergate Hotel. But then what was the next "-gate" scandal?
Other people have complained about this according to my google search, but I would like to know what the first post-Watergate "-gate" scandal was.
Here's hoping Bill Gates will get into a scandal (Gates-gate), the US Open has a scandal (OpenGate) and that a guy named Joe Golden / woman named Jane Golden gets into a scandal (GoldenGate).
I'm so clever!
