Citizen Hearing on Disclosure in Washington D.C. Receive Media Ridicule

Former members of Congress, including Mike Gravel, former senator from Alaska, took the podium and spoke freely of their knowledge regarding the UFO conspiracy. But why is it that you will mostly read about the fee they received for their appearance?

Again a major UFO panel was held in the US capitol, this time titled 'Citizen Hearing on disclosure', again prominent public figures shared their opinions and experience on the matter, and yet again a weired reaction from mainstream media, choosing to focus on the 20,000$ paid to featured speakers rather than on the evidence presented and the significance of openly discussing this phenomena of global importance.

Why would 'serious' media outlets make these kind of editorial decisions? Could it be a legacy, passed on from one editor to his successor down the generations, maintaining the old school way of approaching UFOs, originating way back in the 1950's days of the Robertson Panel?
When Mike Gravel is a serious person, when he speaks the media should surpass its Pavlovian reflex to ridicule and start raising the important questions for the sake of the American public.

But things have changed and are changing today, the ridicule isn't what it used to be, and some of it turned to sheer suspicion (which is not a bad thing if you are honestly seeking the truth).  Still, more courage is needed if the media is to do its original purpose, informing the people. surveys show that the Americans, and others around the globe, are already willing to accept the reality of other intelligent races in our universe, they are only waiting for their journalists to be brave enough to report it.

At the end, even if we are good at heart, we are all human, and the natural thing for a human being to do is to repeat patterns he already learned and knows. And now that Larry King is retired it would take a very curious and brave editor or TV host to change the way things are currently presented. Whoever you are, we are waiting for you.
