Deepthroat

Ever since I came to this country I have always been amazed by the Watergate scandal and how a newspaper literally brought down the Nixon government. What made me even more curious was the unknown identity of the so called Deepthroat that was the whistle blower. The infamous name used in a 1970's porn movie became part of popular lexicom thanks to this scandal (or it was the other way around). Anyway I always wondered when his identity would be revealed and it seems that this has been already revealed in this article by Vanity Fair. Not that I read Vanity fair, but thanks to Talk of the left Who I don't necessarily agree but I find interesting to check in order to understand what the other side is debating and thinking.

Update: Washington Post confirms that W. Mark Felt is the real Deepthroat.
