20/06/2005 Bernstein, Woodward reunite on Deep Throat book
Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein - the two Washington Post journalists behind the breaking of the 1960s Watergate scandal - have reunited on a book about the revelation of their source's identity.
The key Watergate source, known only as Deep Throat until earlier this month, is now known to be former FBI man, 91-year-old Mark Felt.
Woodward has written a book called The Secret Man: The Story of Watergate's Deep Throat which will go on sale in the States on 6 July.
The book will include A Reporter's Assessment by Carl Bernstein.
That won't be the only book to come from the situation as Felt has chosen PublicAffairs Books to publish a combination of autobiography and biography.
According to reports from the US, Universal Pictures has optioned Felt's life story and the book for a movie to be developed by Tom Hanks' production company, Playtone.
