Thank you so much for this thread.
I heard Eric Burns promoting his "revelation" one day last week, and I took him very seriously. I know of Stephen Ambrose... the editor I'm not familiar with, but I take Burns' word that she has some renown. this does make sense, doesn't it?
and knowing what lowlife scumbags both Woodward and Bernstein have proven to be, I don't doubt they would relish perpetuating the myth, that over decades, has given them their cribbed cache.
You're welcome. I'm glad the mods didn't notice I posted it from a blog and that they left here in News ... where it belongs.
