S03-E09 We feature Edward R Murrow, the well-respected newspaper and radio reporter from the 1940s and 1950s and his newscast on flying saucers in 1950. Currently, the government and the military are releasing more information about sightings of UFOs. A big release is planned this summer by the military. I thought it timely to look back in history to see how such UFOs were covered by the traditional news media. Edward R Murrow is considered by many as the finest journalist of his or any generation. He covered World War Two from London and even flew on some dangerous bombing missions over Germany during the war. I thought you would like to listen to this trained journalist make early reports about UFOs.
In addition to this audio episode, I also provide several PDF documents: first, a biography of his life, second, an overview on UFOs, third, a list of UFO sightings, and fourth, a record of UFOs in popular fiction.
Let us now tune our radio dial to 1950 and listen to Mr. Murrow share about UFO sightings.
