I just have to wonder, after all these years, how many really care - other than the media? I vividly remember Watergate but don't care at all who Deep Throat was.
You're right. Only the media cares because Woodward and Bernstein are their raison d'etre.
All journalists want to be just like them and want to have the power they had.
It's all about ego and power.
Woodward and Bernstien still care!!! There are a lot of bucks to be made yet milking this story!!!!
I just have to wonder, after all these years, how many really care.......................
Can Woodward find out who Michael Jackson really is?
Less than half the population even can remember it firsthand, and of those who do, I agreee most don't care. This story will have very short legs, after the obilgatory media circlejerk of self aggrandizement and celebration plays itself out.
FWIW however, I have held all along that DT was a confabulation of Bob Woodward, a pastiche of sources and guesses. This Felt's family's lawyer's deal with VF, selling out the demented old fool, now is a convenient way for Wood-stein to get the DT monkey off their back once and for all, and get on with their tawdry lives.
