Washington Post confirms identity of Deep Throat
UPDATE: Bob Woodward's article on the Deep Throat revelation.
This is outside my ordinary purview, but it's not every day a mystery of this magnitude is revealed.
Vanity Fair published an article today claiming that they had ascertained the identity of the near-mythical Deep Throat. Now the Washington Post (for whom Woodward and Bernstein wrote) has confirmed the story and officially acknowledged the identity of the Watergate informant, previously known only to Woodward, Bernstein and their editor Ben Bradlee.
Bonus link, via Kottke: 1992 article from the Atlantic Monthly laying out the case for Mark Felt as the informant.
