Synopsis

Are extraterrestrials real? Or are they the product of overactive imaginations fed by weekly TV shows and tabloid headlines? Is the government's silence due to ignorance, or to a plan that was implemented long before the public ever heard of 'Martians'? Is the motive of the media to simply profit from this phenomenon, or is it to act as a medium of something much larger and more complex than entertainment? This book is for both the believer and the sceptic -- to be used to decipher the connection between the role of the media and the history of UFOs. For nearly fifty years, in TV shows from Captain Video to The X-Files, movies from The Day the Earth Stood Still to Men in Black, from headline stories in both trashy tabloids and respectable publications, and now on the internet -- we have constantly been exposed to extraterrestrials. This book examines the media's saturation with UFOs and aliens, and addresses a series of arguments as to how it became that way, when it will end, and who's pulling the strings.
