Voice: Good evening. Today the White House made public yet another list of personnel who had overdrawn their checking accounts. Ed Bradley has more. Bradley: Top on the Administration's newest list of offenders is OMB's Lyle Levinthal. His latest bank statement shows an overdraft of over $9,000. Mr. Levinthal claims he has always maintained a healthy balance in the past. I asked him what it was like to suddenly learn he had overdrawn his account by $9,000. Man: It was a thrill, Ed! If I'd know what a simple honest mistake it was, I would have made it years ago! Bradley: You figure it out, Walter.
