Ex-FBI official was 'Deep Throat'

The legendary source 'Deep Throat' in the Watergate scandal that brought down a president was identified Tuesday by The Washington Post as W. Mark Felt. Felt, now 91, was No. 2 at the FBI in the early 1970s. The information he provided Washington Post reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein helped them break many of the stories that led to the resignation of President Nixon in August 1974.
