Jennings Explores ABCs of UFOs
Washington Post ^ | Sunday, February 20, 2005 | Kathy Blumenstock

Flying saucers and strange beings who have visited Earth aren't the typical topics reported by Peter Jennings, anchor of ABC's "World News Tonight." Jennings, whose new two-hour special tackles the subject of UFOs, admits he and his production team began the project with doubts and a dose of curiosity.

"We have a lot of skeptics -- I am very skeptical -- but we seriously investigated something a lot of people are serious about," he said. "And when we come to the end, this is wonderfully interesting.

"More than 80 million Americans believe intelligent beings from somewhere else have come here," he said. "Forty million believe they have seen UFOs, so this is of deep interest to people."

Peter Jennings is an alien intruder here to suppress our spirits for the alien landing force that think our brains taste better that way.

Actually, Art is supposed to be featured in the report, according to him.

Thanks for your caring.

Or, should I say, thanks for your insult--read and noted.

I hope someone takes a photo of your face at the moment when DISCLOSURE reaches a certain critical point! LOL.

It's not my fault you didn't have a close relative working in the field at a highly secret government site.

I still fail to understand what about your psychology compells you to be so hostile to those of us who have had close relatives working in the field; who have worked in the field themselves; and/or who have had intensely dramatic personal experiences.

Some are FREEPERS of very lofty status hereon. But because of the likes of your sorts of comments . . . they would never bog down their FREEPER personna by telling the truth openly. Sad. Very sad, that.

I guess some people just get their jollies putting others down. Maybe it helps you feel higher?

It's beginning to feel like it's more than the usual slight incremental increase in disclosed info mixed with major portions of disinformation. We shall see.

But given the context of the puppet masters seeming to signal in the last week or 3 that we are headed for a nuke or so on our shores . . .

Given Iran . . .

Given Israel et al . . .

The timing could fit right in.

Sounds more like the "Weekly World News Tonight", if you catch my drift.

"guess the war on terror is going too well"

ABC wouldn't want to waste all that high-cost talent on some nonstory like Afghan reconstruction and progress, would they.

I personally find the idea that earth may have been visited by alien life to be completely fascinating. But I have an idea that this show might not break much new ground, or even understand properly the ground that it covers.

May watch it anyhow.

I had no idea things were that bad.

The final "disclosure" is going to have to be extremely convincing. I for one would not take the word of Peter Jennings OR that of the President for all that matter. It is just too far fetched.

But, FRiend, if there is ever evidence that I personally find sufficient then I will openly apologize to you in a vanity thread posted in "Breaking News".

And don't be timid about reminding me of this promise either!

In the meantime though -- you really do sound as though you have bizarre ideas. Especially this "puppet masters" business. I hope most FReepers do not share that kind of literal 'luna'cy.

You seem confident that you will be eventually proven correct. Until such time may I suggest that it would be more gracious of you to simply smile and nod when folks suggest you try more tin foil.

I've got a hockey game to attend Thursday, but I'd be curious to hear your opinion on the ABC show content.
