"Greece is the only EU country left where this could get play. Something like over 67% of the adult population never use the internet. Tabloid conspiracy theory stuff is still ripe for that audience."

You are actually incorrect in all accounts, including the suppose low % of the adult population never using the internet. Also this story is not 'news', its way old, it first appeared in some Greek news outlets back in November 4th, 2008 and most Greeks didn't even pay attention to it because of the major nation wide strikes hitting the country around that time, little green alien men were the last thing on most Greeks minds vs. unfavorable changes the government wanted to make and other national political scandals hitting the country during that time period.

Original story appeared in Greek media outlet dated 11/4/08
