NEW YORK, June 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- For more than 30 years the identity of Deep Throat was the best kept secret in America. Now that he has come forward, how will America view him?

Anchored by The History Channel resident historian Steve Gillon, this Sunday's discussion features Patrick Buchanan, former Nixon speech writer; George McGovern, former Senator from South Dakota and 1972 Democratic nominee for President and Professor Robert Dallek, Presidential historian who is currently writing a book on Richard Nixon.
