Alien Video - Must Be A Slow News Week

For a press corps weary of the Hillary/Obama spat and other such real news items the announcement by Jeff Peckman that he had video proving that outer space aliens exist was a natural. Peckman’s real agenda was to put an item in the budget of the Denver City Council to create an Extraterrestrial Affairs Commission to handle alien encounters.

OK, so had there been no other news to cover, I can see how this one might get a few minutes of play, but it seems every news organization has flocked to Peckman to se the footage of the alleged alien peeking in the window of a house. The video, taken with a black & white security camera by Stan Tiger Romanek back in 2003 in Nebraska. Of course, the image is fuzzy and hard to make out, and from the still that was leaked it is even impossible to tell if it is three dimensional or not.

The video was not released to the news media on the premise that it is being used in a documentary. In other words the whole thing is a tease and a promotion for the upcoming documentary. The whole thing sounds like a grab for Peckman’s 15 minutes of fame and the press should be smarter than that.

So someday we will see this footage which has been examined by a film school professor who says the video hasn’t been tampered with. However the reality of the alien remains in question. From the photo I have seen it is a real question as to whether it’s a puppet or a cutout or a balloon with eyes on it.

So if you believe in UFO’s you will see it as proof and if you are skeptic you will see it as fake. As for me, I see it as a waste of any more space on my blog….
