Deep Throat identity's revealed

I said it in nomadlife and I say it here as well....

The identity of the person that was behind the leek done more than 2 decades ago to Woodward and Bernstein from Washington Post and that started the whole Watergate investigation has been disclosed.

" NEW YORK (AP) -- A former FBI official claims he was "Deep Throat," the long-anonymous source who leaked secrets about President Nixon's Watergate coverup to The Washington Post, his family said Tuesday.
W. Mark Felt, 91, was second-in-command at the FBI in the early 1970s. His identity was revealed Tuesday by Vanity Fair magazine, and family members said they believe his account is true."


The Watergate scandal eventually led to the resignation of Richard Nixon.
