So says James Rosen of Fox News:

A new book on the scandal that brought down President Richard Nixon alleges that White House counsel John Dean ordered the infamous Watergate break-in in 1972, a charge Dean strongly rejected. James Rosen, a Fox News Channel correspondent in Washington, made the charge based on interviews and an exhaustive review of documents for “The Strong Man: John Mitchell and the Secrets of Watergate.” The biography is being released this week about Nixon’s attorney general, a central Watergate figure. Dean called Rosen’s assertion “pathetic.”
