Deep Throat steps forward? Ex-FBI official says he's 'Deep Throat' Magazine quotes him as saying he was 'doing his duty' MSNBC Updated: 11:41 a.m. ET May 31, 2005 W. Mark Felt, who retired from the FBI after rising to its second most senior position, has identified himself as the "Deep Throat" source quoted by The Washington Post to break the Watergate scandal that led to President Nixon's resignation, Vanity Fair magazine said Tuesday. "I'm the guy they used to call Deep Throat," he told John D. O'Connor, the author of Vanity Fair's exclusive that appears in its July issue. Felt, now 91 and living in Santa Rosa, Calif. reportedly gave O'Connor permission to disclose his identity. "The Felt family cooperated fully, providing old photographs for the story and agreeing to sit for portraits," Vanity Fair stated in a press release. Felt said he was "only doing his duty" and did not seek to bring down Nixon over the cover-up of a break-in at Democratic Party offices in the Watergate complex in Washington, D.C. © 2005 MSNBC Interactive g.msn.com
