Ep. 29: Misrepresenting McCord's Misconduct

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.
