Not on a Mac, alas. Damn CNN! Now I have to watch this under Windows Vista.

Gene, do you have the Flip4Mac WMV Player installed? CNN vids play fine on my mac (OSX 10.4.9). You may need to relaunch Safari if you get an error message when trying to view CNN video player.

The site is working now. Must be something at their end.
 
FFS!!! More disinformation!!! Why do they *ALWAYS* show video of the 'flares' that were dropped later that evening while the witnesses audio is obviously describing the structured 'V-shaped' craft that flew over a couple of hours before?
 
Personally I'm quite impressed to see a main stream story on the phoenix lights that didn't even mention the word "flares".

Well, they *must* have known that the footage they were showing was of the flares dropped by the military late in the evening - I think they *should* have mentioned the flares...

It annoys me greatly too. Its nice to see someone else mention this. I seem to be the only one at times. I rarely even see the initial craft vid of that night. Even hard to find on the net. If someone knows where to view it, please post. I often wish to show it to people who seem oblivious to it, but can't find it online. I'm sure it's out there somewhere, but the flare vids are all that turn up in my searches.

For some reason when it comes to the paranormal, the news people's brains turn to mush. Then again, I wonder if the stuff outside of the paranormal (which I don't know as much about) they report on is equally bad, and I am just ignorant to their incompetency since I do not research it as much. If so, we are a heavily mis informed society.

I think mainstream journalism is dead - stories are no longer 'investigated', they are re-hashed versions of a single source that is provided by a news agency...

A lot of bandwagoneers I see. They report what their competition reports. It is often gathered from the AP though.

The only good news person that comes to mind in dealing with the Paranormal (I don't follow his work on anything else) is George Knapp. I mean it took Peter Jennings his whole life before he realized a significant percentage of the population believes/thinks that the US gov. is witholding information on UFOs. That's why he did the special. How on Earth, or anywhere else, is that even possible? It's as big a mystery as the greys themselves. Maybe more.

Wait, were those lights shown in the footage flares? Is there another video of the actual object as people described? I have to tell you though, I've seen flares dropped from A-10s before and they don't usually hover in formations like that. Most of the time you can even see the trailing smoke as they descend. Could those lights have been something else?

Well the documentaries I've seen quite clearly show a line of flares floating down and disappearing behind a ridge, giving the impression that they are blinking out when in fact they are no longer in view. I have seen footage of the 'v-shaped' craft - the video is very fuzzy as it was taken at night with no enhancement, it shows 5 lights in a very obvious v-formation. It's difficult to tell whether the object is 'solid' and it isn't that impressive, but it's nothing like the 'flares' footage.

From memory, I think the main sighting of the 'V-shaped' craft was somewhere between 19:00 and 20:00 whereas the big 'arc' of lights happened after 22:00 - but I've seen documentaries play the audio of witnesses describing what they saw at 19:00 while they show the footage of the 'flares' at 22:00. It's very misleading, because the witness audio is talking about 'v-shaped' craft and the video shows an arc of near stationary lights that blink on in turn and then blink off. Anyone not aware that alternative footage exists of the v-shaped craft will wonder what all the fuss is about...
