PRG Update - August 2, 2008The Dr. Edgar Mitchell Phenomenonhttp://server1.streamsend.com/streamsend/clicktracker.php?cd=5569&ld=12&md=267&ud=0d0987513e8b8f0aa6af3cd909293ab2&url=http://www.paradigmresearchgroup.org/Mitchell Media Coverage.htmAn extraordinary media cycle is presently underway centered upon affirmations by Apollo 14 Astronaut Dr. Edgar Mitchell of an extraterrestrial, non-human intelligence engaging the human race. His comments were made in an interview on July 23 on Kerrang! Radio out of London. On "The Night Before with Nick Margerrison" Dr. Mitchell only repeated what he has said many times before, but the reality is the vast majority of the audience and the media in Europe were hearing it for the first time. This media storm was triggered by the program and a press release by either Kerrang! Radio or its parent company, the German media giant Bauer Consumer. It was supported by an international press release by PRG the next morning at 9 am.PRG is archiving all Mitchell coverage and interviews at the above URL and will work to expand the story and work it up the media ladder. So far the major U. S. papers (New York Times, Washington, Post, Los Angeles Times, etc.) are either staying away from the story or relegating it to bloggers.The most recent Mitchell interview was this evening, August 2, on Fox News' Hannity and Colmes. It will be replayed at midnight EST.AOL News Pollhttp://server1.streamsend.com/streamsend/clicktracker.php?cd=5569&ld=12&md=267&ud=0d0987513e8b8f0aa6af3cd909293ab2&url=http://news.aol.com/article/astronaut-claims-alien-cover-up/101479

Here they are: Do you believe that life exists elsewhere in the universe? Yes (128,631) 93% No (9,564) 7%Do you think Earth has been visited by aliens? Yes (110,119) 81% No (26,039) 19%
Gary McKinnon Loses Extradition Appeal in the UK House of Lordshttp://server1.streamsend.com/streamsend/clicktracker.php?cd=5569&ld=12&md=267&ud=0d0987513e8b8f0aa6af3cd909293ab2&url=http://tinyurl.com/5rqxckComputer hacker Gary McKinnon is one step closer to extradition to the United States to face trial for hacking government computers looking for, among other things, information about UFOs and government cover-up. It is assumed Mr. McKinnon will appeal his case to the European Court and take all stalling measures possible to delay extradition until after a new administration has taken office in the United States - his hope being the new administration will drop extradition and leave the matter to UK courts.PRG some time ago informed McKinnon's attorney that should a trial take place in the United States, PRG executive director Stephen Bassett will be happy to assist the defense including testifying on behalf of the defendant. It is assumed the U. S. government will move heaven and earth to avoid the UFO/ET issue being introduced into such a trial. Much effort has been made in the past to get the UFO/ET issue into a court of law as part of a high profile case. It has never happened.PRG is archiving the extensive coverage of the McKinnon case at: www.paradigmresearchgroup.org/newsitems2008.html
Debunker ArchivePRG will soon begin a new project - creating an online archive of printed, video and audio comments by the most notable UFO/ET debunkers during the past 60 years. There are three reasons for this project: 1) begin assembling a history of UFO/ET debunking, 2) provide media producers an easy way to see what they are getting when they book any of the living debunkers as counterpoint to researchers/activists, and 3) have such an archive at the ready when post-Disclosure these same people attempt to recast themselves as the world's leading experts on all things extraterrestrial (and you can be sure they will since they have no boundaries).As archiving projects go, this will be a bit more difficult than most. Any assistance would be welcome. If you have or know where PRG can find printed, audio and/or video examples of the "debunker's greatest hits," please pass them on to PRG. Contact information below.
