I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'one who produced satire' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.

'make ladies crow' is the wordplay.
'make' indicates an anagram.
'ladies'+'crow'='ladiescrow'
'ladiescrow' is an anagram of 'OSCAR WILDE'.

'to' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for oscar wilde that I've seen before include "dramatist" , "Irish-born writer and wit (1854-1900)" , "playwright" , "Irish writer and wit" , "He had nothing to declare but his genius" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish News.
