No he wouldn't resign today. In those days, the media had a lot of credibility. There were only a few outlets from which everyone got their news, and they could be swayed to a single cause.

Today with news outlets aligned by team, Nixon would have had cheerleaders and would have stuck it out. He would have been impeached perhaps but not removed, a la Clinton.
