After digging and thinking for four years, journalism students at the University of Illinois Champaign-Urbana think they've figured out the identity of Watergate figure Deep Throat.
If you had that weasel Pat Buchanan in the office pool, like Dateline NBC did, you're wrong. If you had John Dean, you're warmer, but not quite on the mark.
This has been a Washington parlor game for going on 30 years. Woodward and Bernstein themselves say they won't tell until Deep Throat dies. But these students have assembled what looks like a pretty good guess.
