    I really think they hurt their credibility by being overly insistent about the validity of the cases they're discussing. There are some unexplained cases that could be presented non-hysterically and would let the general public come to their own conclusions -- and probably make the general public more accepting of the possibility that the cases are legit. But that approach isn't taken very often. So it makes ALL their cases look bogus.

    • Specializing in a specific field is not being overly insistent. That would be like saying a brain surgeon is overly insistent because they only know about brain surgery.

    • I'm just talking about the style of writing in many books about UFOs and the attitude taken by many hosts on TV shows about UFOs. One example is the guy who's overly tanned with thick hair who presents the cases like he's selling used cars. Even when he has good points, his presentation makes you wonder: why is he pushing so hard? Yes, it makes his show more exciting, but I just want to hear the info he has to present and be able to think about it and evaluate it. A brain surgeon can present facts quietly and you can listen and evaluate them. A ufologist could do that, too. Some do. But the ones who seem hysterical and see conspiracies everywhere are the ones who do a disservice to the ones who are really trying to learn what the UFOs are all about.

    • Are you talking about the guy with the "crazy hair" ? Yeah, I do agree he is out there - but there is a reason he says what he says. He isn't talking to your average person, there is a group of people out there that actually believe they are seeded from aliens.

      I personally think those broadcasts are for them. Not the rest of us who know better. It's like..like an agenda of some sort. I don't know, that's just what I get out of it.
