CNN has aired a considered and intelligent report on Dr. Steven Greer’s Disclosure Conference. In sharp contrast to the silly story that appeared in the Washington Post, CNN’s coverage offers a clear and concise digest of the conference and is careful to identify the credentials of the witnesses who are pictured.

The report does not add any of the usual humor or ‘spin’ to this story. Dr. Greer’s conference was a compelling and convincing effort. It is to be hoped that good media coverage will continue.
