It will be interesting to see how the media portrays him as compared to Linda Tripp. With Tripp, the media's attitude was largely one of "nobody likes a snitch". I suspect that Felt will be recognized as a hero.

About the same way they played Saint Daniel Ellsberg.

Sometimes you have to "bend the rules" to get somebody.

Perhaps his identity has been sheltered to protect him from prosecution. Meanwhile they pursued "wiretapping" charges against Tripp.

I agree.

For some unfathomable reason, I watched the Barbara Walters interview with Monica Lewinsky right after the impeachment. The one question that never got asked is "don't you understand that you asked Linda Tripp to commit a crime, and she made tapes to prove she was telling the truth."
