Deep Throat
Ex-FBI #2 official Mark Felt has been named as the infamous Deep Throat, the primary source of reporters Bob Woodward's and Carl Bernstein's coverage of the Watergate scandal that led to president Richard Nixon's resignation in 1974. Felt's attorney released the admission, although Woodward and Bernstein have neither confirmed nor denied the claim.
Felt has been high on the list of Deep Throat suspects for a long time. If Felt is truly the Throat, he should be able to reveal details that will confirm that fact easily enough. If he is in fact the Throat, I will be most curious to know why he went public after more than 30 years of anonymity.
