Throat Closes

"'We know what’s leaked, and we know who leaked it,' Nixon’s chief of staff, H. R. Haldeman, told the president on Oct. 19, 1972, four months after a team of washed-up Central Intelligence Agency personnel hired by the White House was caught trying to wiretap the Democratic Party’s national offices at the Watergate complex.
"'Somebody in the F.B.I.?' Nixon asked."

Tim Weiner in The New York Times reports the death of "Deep Throat," W. Mark Felt.

And Timothy Noah in Slate adds an un-appreciation.
