in journalism

1:06:31
called ''deep background''
which means that

1:06:33
the information cannot be used
in the newspaper

1:06:36
with any kind of
hint of attribution,

1:06:40
Deep Throat, deep background.
You know, it's sort of a...

(True)
More, more, more,

1:07:03
How do you like it,

A year ago,

1:07:43
a Memphis federal court
convicted actor Harry Reems

1:07:46
on obscenity charges
in connection with his role

1:07:48
in the film Deep Throat,
1:07:50
Today, a US District Judge
in Memphis overturned
that conviction,

1:07:53
saying that
the actor's activities
took place before

1:07:56
the 1973 Supreme Court
obscenity ruling.
