For it appears Felt swiped the research for the Post's Watergate stories from FBI files, while Woodward did rewrite and Bernstein was on the coffee-and-Danish run.

Now this is funny.

It is also good satire because it is partly true. Even journalist who worship the dynamic duo of Woodward and Bernstein confirm that Bernstein was not a good writer, he wasn't even a fair writer. Woodward did all the heavy embellishing and fairy tail writing. They snicker behind Bernstein's back today because he hasn't written a decent piece in 25 years.

I heard once, not sure where it was now, that he was about toi be fired from the post. Watergate literally saved his job.
