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

Posted on 02/21/2005 4:14:51 PM PST by Momaw Nadon

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."

Unfortunately none of that intelligence found its way to Washington!

"How To Recognise An Alien"

They have no pulse or heartbeat

They need to regenerate themselves at regular intervals otherwise they die

When they die, they incinerate, leaving virtually no trace

Some of them have a mutated fourth finger

When they are wounded, they don't bleed

Pure Oxygen is fatal to them

They have no emotions

Hmmm ... where did you say you were from again Peter?

After never watching that show, no matter how many friends said it was just my kinda show, I've started watching it on DVD. I'm through seasons 1-4 and really liking it, though seeing it in such a compressed schedule shows how tenuous some of the "myth" stuff is. Good stuff, though I prefer Millennium in some ways.

I think angels may be aliens, or the Star of Bethleham was a UFO.

(I have lots of free time on my hands to think these things...)

I find it hard to believe that we've been visited from elsewhere in the universe and the only evidence remaining is the verbal evidence of some odd people.

Thanks.

Is it worth pinging the list? Seems a bit redundant! LOL.

Dave, if you think it's worth a ping, I'd be blessed if you'd do the honors.

One friend and I recently were discussing whether Jennings is the best choice, if the puppet masters are using him to raise the bar on disclosure.

My reply was that they would have likely chosen Cronkite except they might know he's real passe.

Jennings has probably been in the puppet masters' circle for a long time. They might see him as an excellent choice. Or, they might feel they owe him for keeping quiet on various things he's found out over the decades.

Maybe if we can convince Petah that Kofi and his UN gang are space aliens then we might a full hour devoted to an investigation of that corrupt mess.

The UN's in danger of going extinct, so it is time to push the big threats that require global government. Global warming, alien invasion.

Personally, I think it is quite possible that there have been visitors from elsewhere, but when Peter Jennings does 2 hour specials on the matter, I wonder if this has just as much to do with furthering the elitist/globalist agenda as it does with addressing the market's demand for information on the subject.

Peter Jennings meets George Adamski, Kenneth Arnold and Erich von Daniken.

Another "trusted" news anchor bites the dust. Jennings is history; retired, unknown and forgotten.

Sounds like a perfect subject for Jennings and one of the few things he is actually qualified to discuss.

After all, he was brought here by Martians.
