As part of Face the Nation’s 60th anniversary program on Sunday, the CBS newscast played clips of interviews with current, future and past Presidents – including Ronald Reagan in 1970 being asked by CBS News correspondent Bill Stout about calling a state official a “lying son of a bitch.”

Watch the video to hear how Reagan, then the Governor of California, responded with an answer which earned its place in the highlight reel.
