Picking Up On What Lesley Said

Lesley has said something in her introduction for today about the media. In discussing UFO Magazine's current issue (you can dowload it for free as a PDF) Lesley refers to the cover, which shows a female an a male news anchor.

The female news anchor Nichole is captioned as saying: "When you think of people saying: "Oh, Hey, I saw a UFO,' you kinda think of freaks. I'm not gonna lie to you."

(First of all, Nicole dahling, you're a newscaster. Or so we're supposed to believe. Your sloppy speech patterns really need work. I mean honsestly: "kinda," and "gonna"?)

This is what Lesley said:

Some people think ufologists should impress the media by not seeming so kooky, but when will the media impress me by not seeming kooky and sooooooooo damn lazy?

It's time UFOlogy, instead of constantly complaining about the "sorry state" and whining about not being a part of the infrastructure's party, get aggressive and demand that the media and science step up. They should be coming to our party. Both should get back to what they were trained to do: investigate.
