Involvement with Grover Cleveland and E. J Edwards[edit]

According to The President is a Sick Man : Grover Cleveland Survives a Secret Surgery at Sea and Vilifies the Courageous Newspaperman Who Dared Expose the Truth by Matthew Algeo, McClure was deeply involved in the Cleveland administration's efforts to discredit journalist E J Edwards for his exposure of the secret oral cancer surgery of the President. McClure was a close friend of Cleveland's and his attacks against Edwards were quite vicious. Wordreader (talk) 05:35, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
