Tim Noah of Slate magazine, in a Washington Post online chat:
"When I spoke to Felt a few years ago, he said in no uncertain terms that for an FBI employee to leak details of a criminal investigation to a newspaper would be a terrible betrayal.
I agree. I'm also glad to see (if true) that it was someone like Felt and not anyone from Nixon's inner circle as most of the MSM often infer. IMO, it was a rat operation right from the git go.

Well his family says differently now .. calling him a hero
What if it isn't Felt?
Let me guess. The "few years ago" was during the Clinton administration. Of course, it is a betrayal when a Dem is president.
