The Senate Watergate Report is the best resource for the facts. The committee was not able to say for sure who authored the infamous letter from "Paul Morrison." (pages 309-311) However, they did identify the three individuals who had organized similar, closely related "dirty tricks."

It is documented that Stone had targeted the newspaper that the letter appeared in previously in the campaign.
