Not buying it. Rutten's piece reeks of sour grapes. (I had better knock back some Advil to prevent a hangover after reading that.) Yes, Woodward is "powerful and well-connected" and most of us who have spent time as journalists aren't. We could hum "It should have been me." But, unlike Rutten we have enough self-respect not to. Truth of the matter? Woodward could not get the information he does from his A-list sources if he wasn't A-list himself. Is that fair? No, but little in life is. Rutten and others hoping Woodward is "in trouble' are going to be disappointed. If anything, the latest pie Woodward has been discovered to have a finger in will heighten interest in his books.
