Bob Woodward names confidential sources in new memoir 'Secrets'
Veteran journalist Bob Woodward identifies many of the confidential sources behind his scoops over a 55-year career in his upcoming book, "Secrets: A Reporter's Memoir."
Bob Woodward, the journalist who helped expose the Watergate scandal, reveals the identities of many confidential sources who gave him classified and highly sensitive information in his forthcoming book, "Secrets: A Reporter's Memoir," The Washington Post reported.
Most of the people he names in the 592-page book have died, and some gave him permission to identify them, according to the Post. Woodward writes that Supreme Court Justices Potter Stewart, Lewis Powell, Byron White, Harry Blackmun and William Rehnquist spoke with him for "The Brethren," his 1979 book on the court. He describes C. Boyden Gray, who died in 2023, as "one of my lifelong secret sources" and calls the late budget director Richard Darman "a reporter's dream source."
The book also revisits his disputed 1987 bedside conversation with CIA Director William Casey, which some CIA leaders and Casey's widow accused him of inventing for his book "Veil." Woodward protected the identity of his Watergate source, "Deep Throat," for three decades until former FBI official Mark Felt identified himself in 2005.
The memoir is scheduled to be published in November.
