He and Haig had a relationship.

And that's where the damaging information was coming from, was from Haig.

But Woodward didn't meet Haig until 73, which is all bullshit.

And...

Woodward said Mark Felt is deep throat.

Okay, Mark Felt was the associate director of the FBI, but he got fired.

And he got fired in May of 73.

And according to Woodward and Bernstein and all the president's men,

Deep Throat would drive by Woodward's apartment every day, and if Woodward moved the flower pot, that would mean that he wanted to talk to Deep Throat.

And Woodward would take all these cabs and be clandestine and would meet in an underground parking lot in Alexandria, Virginia.

I mean, it was all bullshit anyway.

And then if Deep Throat wanted to talk to Woodward,

It was like page 20 of the New York Times, and he'd put a little clock there.

Okay, so now here's where reality kind of impinges upon the cover story.

Mark Felt was fired in May of 73, and the most damaging information from Deep Throat came in November of 73.

So we're supposed to believe that Mark Felt, who had been fired from the FBI, is driving into Washington, D.C.

And by the way, Woodward's balcony is facing a courtyard.

So he would have to go down an alley and then get out of his car and walk 50 feet and look straight up to see whether or not Woodward had moved his flowerpot for them.

And then...

The page 20 of the New York Times, all the, like the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, they were all put in a pile at Woodward's apartment building.
