The Washington Conection

The Washington Connection

I led a team of investigative reporters in 1977 who reconstituted a ton of shredded documents and used them to spur on a Congressional investigation into payoffs from wealthy South Korean businessman Tongsun Park who was the main conduit for his country's efforts to buy influence.

We wrote a book called, "The Washington Connection" and the resulting scandal was called Koreagate.

The processing power for our operation came from open-source wetware running on carbs and adrenaline supplemented by adequate doses of ethanol. We experienced frequent meatware crashes as the result of overloaded I/O handlers.

I've scanned the shreds-related photos from "The Washington Connection" which you can find here
