Ever since Viacom bought up the Sci Fi channel, there have been virtually no serious UFO-related shows. None that I'm aware of at all, in fact. Viacom stopped all the ufo-related shows like on Roswell and Kecksberg once they took over.
I talked to Leslie Kean about this at a post-memorial (memorial for John Mack in Oakland, sponsored by Joe Firmage) dinner at a Chinese restaurant in downtown Oakland.
She expressed frustration that she could not even access her own CFI (Coalition for Freedom of Information) site, which was sponsored by and linked to the SciFi.com site, to add data on Kecksberg, once Viacom took over.
She later was able to get the site away from SciFi, and it can now be viewed at: http://www.freedomofinfo.org/ but, other than some new stuff about ex-Governor of Arizona Fyfe Symington's 10 years later belated admission that he witnessed the huge triangular craft over Phoenix in 1997 (even though he tried to supress interest in the sightings to supposedly reduce "potential hysteria" if he had admitted also being a witness), there's really not much new on the site--the vast majority of it is as it was 3 or 4 years ago, when it was still under SciFi.com control.
See: www.scifi.com/ufo/ and you will see none of the data on this ufo portal is later than 2003, and most of it is from 2001/02.
The link to the interviews goes to old recycled stuff the Sci Fi channel had from _before_ Viacom bought them out.
Now all the Sci Fi channel does in terms of producing original shows is to do cheap, sensationalistic, low-brow, crappy "scifi" movies to reap the highest return on the advertising commercial dollar.
Viacom put the kibosh on any serious ufo-related shows.
Unfortunately, its sad, and that appears across the Ufology landscape..What I see is recirculation of old data among ufologists, a lot of self promotion on C2C and LMH, who have appeared more concerned generating hits on their websites over anything that has a wow factor than any serious inquiry. The Military doesn't have to disinfo, as Video gaming companies have saturated the net with ARG's and hoaxes to stir the ufo believers up. Visit any forum and that will be evident. The virals are creating their own Roswell memes that continue far beyond the product itself. Once many are convinced that everything was a myth or urban legend, then disclosure becomes either a myth unto itself, or a series of inaudible cries to keep the cash cow alive.
the craft are real, we make them. In 1947 the crash was a captured german jet turbine powered craft piloted by a canadian. These craft are the greatest psychological weapons platforms ever designed by men. http://www.thule.org/looksaucer.html of course they will kill to keep the secret.
All the major name UFOlogists are disinformants. I was familiar with all of them being friends with bill cooper (reportedly deceased). When linda howe ran out of phony mutilations to talk about,(downwind radiation accumulation studies) she switched to crop circles. These people are carnival geeks fresh out of chickens to bite.
