Contemporary History

Here's an amusing little article about Deep Throat by Timothy Noah -- Deep Throat, Antihero. It seems that Deep Throat hated Nixon for all the wrong reasons.

further:Professor Bainbridge expresses it well in the conclusion to his post on Noah's piece:

What Noah fails to consider is the possibility that those discrepancies might reveal a deeper truth: Maybe Deep Throat was really a composite character all along. We don't know because we tolerate a culture of anonymous sourcing and journalistic dissembling.

Or there's Big Arm Woman. More succinct.
