WATERGATE HYPOCRISY: LIBERALS LIONIZE LEAKER "The liberal media has put W. Mark Felt on a pedestal, claiming that his role in Watergate was a catalyst for the fall of the Nixon administration ("Deep Throat Coughs It Up," June 1). Yet, during the Lewinsky scandal, these same individuals portrayed Linda Tripp as a tattletale and back stabber, in attempt to lessen the gravity of her information. Seems a bit hypocritical." Tom King Manhattan ---- "Why did Felt hide his identity for 30 years? Because he knew that he had violated his oath of office at the FBI by leaking information to The Washington Post. He was ashamed of himself. Why, then, has he come forward now? For the quick buck of a book deal. I don't blame Felt, who is now too old and senile to know what he is doing. I blame his family for sacrificing their father's reputation for the quick buck." Abe Krieger Highland Park, N.J. ---- "Not only did Felt intentionally wait 30 years for the statute of limitations to run out before telling his family, he didn't even have the decency to let Woodward and Bernstein break their own story. He gave the exclusive to another reporter. Felt played Woodward when he first dropped the dime on Nixon, and he played Woodward after 30 years of Woodward keeping his secret. If you ask me, I think they're all finks." Richard Reay The Bronx ---- "If Felt were a true American hero who wanted to put a stop to government law-breaking, he would have tipped reporters to J. Edgar Hoover's many violations of citizens' civil rights, including the wiretapping of Martin Luther King. As far as we know, Felt didn't become interested in stopping unlawful government surveillance until Nixon passed him over for the top spot at the FBI."

The Washington Post, NY TIMES, LA TIMES, Boston Globe, Baltimore Sun, ABC TV, NBC TV, CBS TV are all HATE-AMERICA, leftwing promotional outlets. You lefties exist in your own dreamworld. Your vile lefty "news" media is going extinct before your eyes. Newspapers circulation is down. down, down. TV "news" ratings are in the toilet. ABC is booting out lefty Ted Koppel, Dan Rather put leftwing America-hating CBS in the toilet with his use of forged documents to attack the Republican presidential candidate weeks before an election for president. The top execs of the lefty NY TIMES "resigned" after the Jason Blair false "news" scandal. The top exec for lefty CNN resigned after making false statements that US troops were killing reporters. Jack Kelly of lefty USA Today was fired after it was exposed that he falsified years worth of "news" reports--especially attacking Serbia and Israel with made up crap Your lefty "news' media is close to extinction and you don't know it.
