I like that it shows the half-legitimate ways Woodstein were "confirming" information from sources.  They could be very indirect, without making the people being questioned explicitly state an answer, effectively getting information from those who didn't want to talk.  My favorite was when Bernstein counted to ten on the phone about Haldeman.  Also, there was getting the bookkeeper to nod at the initials L, M, and P.  Third, when they got Sloan to finally say that he "would not have a problem" with their accusatory article if they published it. -Whitney Holcomb
