| Description | NEW YORK (CNN) -- Former FBI official Mark Felt "did the right thing" by leaking information to The Washington Post that helped lead to President Nixon resignation's in the Watergate scandal in 1974, former President Clinton said.
"I think he did a good thing, and I think it was unusual circumstances," Clinton said Wednesday on CNN's "Larry King Live."
Felt, once the No. 2 official at the FBI, was "Deep Throat," the secret source for Washington Post reporters in the aftermath of the bungled 1972 break-in at the Democratic Party offices in the Watergate complex.
