    The correct answer is A. Saturday Night Massacre

    Explanation:

    The term "Saturday Night Massacre" is used to refer to President Nixon's decision to fire different staff members including the Attorney General Elliot and the Deputy Attorney General William, because they did not accept Nixon request to fire Archibald Cox who had revealed tapes that directly show President Nixon was part of illegal activities. This event occurred on Saturday, October 20th of 1973 and was part of a major event called the Watergate Scandal in which President Nixon tried to cover up his involvement on different illegal activities. Therefore, Nixon's firing of several staff members who refused to follow his orders became known as the Saturday Night Massacre.
