I had heard the story about Bill Moyers trying to dig up dirt on Jack Valenti's sexual orientation when he worked in the administration of Lyndon Johnson. But apparently there's a whole lot more dirty tricks in Moyers' past than I had ever known. Wow.The picture to the right is Moyers back in the day. One could run an interesting caption contest on what he is hearing. Feel free to add your suggestions in the comments.
P.S. I met Jack Valenti back when I worked at National Review. He struck me as a dapper, somewhat Napoleonic figure, what with his square jaw and deep booming Texas voice compensating somewhat for a diminutive stature. If this was his mien consistently through his life, then it seems to me only the politically obsessed, such as J. Edgar Hoover, LBJ and Moyers could have projected onto him that he was hiding something about himself.
