I keep seeing it reported over and over again (no, not the Soyuz rocket that everyone also keeps reporting ad nauseum) how National Geographic's UFO hoax that made it on to the Internet. Anti-paranormal people have just gone ape over the entire thing, reporting it over and over again, across blogs, news sites, and even in multiple languages. Why? Well, to them it basically suggests that all UFO sightings must be just like this. So, I guess the Phoenix Lights sighting by thousands of people was also a jack ass with a remote control helicopter in a parking lot?



Yes, UFO hoaxes and frauds do happen, but so do scientific ones (the initial cold fusion results, MMR+Autism vaccine connections, etc), but that doesn't mean that everything else connected is automatically equally on shaky ground. Give me a break! Typical though, the anti-paranormal community will probably hold this over our heads for a long while.
