  • Deep Throat Identified

    The identity of Deep Throat, Woodward and Bernstein's Watergate informant, was kept a secret for over 30 years. In 1975, former FBI associate director Mark Felt revealed that he had been the source of the Deep Throat leaks. There was some concern about the accuracy of the revelation, as Felt, who was 91, was suffering from dementia and didn't have full memory of the events surrounding Watergate. Woodward and Bernstein had promised not to reveal the identity of Deep Throat until after his death, but Woodward stepped forward and confirmed that Felt was indeed Deep Throat.Reuters: Watergate 'Deep Throat' Mark Felt Dies at 95 (December 19, 2008) YouTube Video: Mark Felk, Aka "Deep Throat" Dead at 95 (Time: 1:50)
