This explains several things. Woodward and Bernstein claimed that Deep Throat was inside the white house. That could not have been true. Since everyone in the White House knew about the taping.. and it is obvious that Deep Throat did not know about it.
The existance of the tapes was revealed by a White House staffer testifying before the Congressional Committee.
The Question is what did Deep Throat know. The FBI certainly talked to employees at the Watergate, and talked to the investigating officers. I doubt seriously if many of the principles talked much to the FBI. They all had the right to remain silent.. and until it broke wide open I betcha a lot of them did.
I still think that a lot of what they published in the Washington Post was assumptions based on analsys not on a real sourse. Some of it came from this Deep Throat, but I would still bet a lot of it was educated guess.
I think the FBI knew who broke into the Watergate, and they may have traced some money transfers, but not much else.
"I still think that a lot of what they published in the Washington Post was assumptions based on analsys not on a real source. Some of it came from this Deep Throat, but I would still bet a lot of it was educated guess."
Bingo! I think the big question is why come out with this now, besides the money angle for the Felts? Keep alert, the Leftist MSM/Rats are not to be trusted, this WG Public Refresh smells fishy..
It's the ultimate game of unverified sources with a perfect ending. An unverified admission.
The MSM made things up even then? I'm shocked!
