Conspiracy Theory

Well, it seems as though another chapter in the mystery of American conspiracy theories is coming to a close. Unlike the unanswered "who was on the grassy knoll?" question, this one may be answered. A magazine speculates that the infamous Deep Throat of Nixon and Watergate is none other than W. Mark Felt of the FBI. I find these moments in history fascinating, not in an Oliver Stone sort of way, but in a these are the makings of our relatively young nation sort of way.

UPDATE: The Washington Post confirms the story here.
