Ep. 29: Misrepresenting McCord's Misconduct

  • Summary

  • James McCord is a highly intriguing character, if an opaque one.  As we described earlier, John Mitchell had wanted a personal security officer, but Alfred Wong of the Secret Service, with thousands of retired agents in D.C., could only find McCord, a “retired” CIA agent with no personal security experience.  So why did McCord’s friend Wong recommend him, and is it a coincidence that McCord came from the shadowy Office of Security ("OS") within the CIA, as did Watergate burglary supervisor Howard Hunt?  Did the Washington Post truthfully report on what appeared to be stunning evidence of McCord’s work as an undercover CIA agent? What is this evidence that the Post so clearly withheld from the public, dramatic evidence that would have changed public perception of our country’s most serious scandal? In this episode, we will solve one more of the Mysteries of Watergate.
