I read quite a bit about that story. Interesting you think it wasn't adequately covered. I'm sure the fact that he pled guilty, and paid the fine, and that Clinton was no longer president lessened the impact of the story. It's no fun to have a guilty person who actually admits to being guilty. What's the point? It's much more fun when people try to cover things up- that's what makes a story- (even where there really isn't much of an underlying "crime"- a coverup can be really damaging).

Berger was stupid, but he didn't have an office in the White House at the time, nor did Clinton. I recall seeing a few stories about it anyway.

I don't even remember what he swiped or why. Was there any political motive to it, a la Rove's conduct?
