The Post solves a "mystery"

Having suffered yesterday through wall-to-wall coverage of "Deep Throat" on CNN (to be renamed WNN, for "Watergate Nostalgia Network"), I had to laugh at this morning's Washington Post headline. Check out how the subheadline is phrased:

FBI's No. 2 Was 'Deep Throat'
Mark Felt Ends 30-Year Mystery of The Post's Watergate Source

The newspaper obviously has known who this guy was from the start, and it's a "mystery"? Talk about an out-of-body headline.
