The conspiracy theory that the Apollo moon landings were a hoax, fake in a studio somewhere, has its first Hollywood celebrity proponent. According to Debbie Schlussel, Whoopi Goldberg announced her doubts on July 20th airing of The View.
“But you knew that some celebrity would use the TV airwaves to put forth the loony conspiracy theories that it never happened. And, predictably, that loon is Whoopi Goldberg, resident Communist of ABC’s “The View,” who revealed herself a Moon Landing Truther on
Moon Landing Conspiracy Theories and Whoopi Goldberg this morning’s show of the hour-long waste of TV air. Yup, she’s an Apollo 11 Truther.”
It seems that Whoopi Goldberg actually cited the film Capricorn One, which depicted the faking of the first Mars landing, to buttress her belief. Oddly enough, Barbara Walters and not Elisabeth Hasselbeck was obliged to step in and inform Whoopi Goldberg of the error of her thinking.
Whoopi Goldberg must have also been thinking of her stint as an alien on the series Star Trek: The Next Generation.
It seems rather tiresome to even have to refute this kind of demented nonsense, but since Whoopi Goldberg is now the first Hollywood celebrity spokesperson for the We Never Went to the Moon movement, it seems like a good time to approach the matter from a Hollywood film making perspective.
Neil Armstrong, who knows certainly that we went to the Moon because he was there, said it best when he suggested that in the 1960s it would have been far more difficult to fake a Moon landing (six times!) than it would have been to actually do it. There was no computer graphic technology available at the time to make the “fake” Moon walks seem real.
A special effects expert for the HBO miniseries From Earth to the Moon was posed the same question. He also suggested that the technology was just not there in 1969 to fake a moon landing. He was an expert in faking moon landings, having done it for the miniseries.
All I can say is that Ted Danzen must have been one dumb a**ed man to marry that.
WTF?!? That’s yucky!!!
