Midnight In The Desert

50+ years of constant and extensive in-depth indie investigation has turned up nothing of any substance.

Fuck your mother. How many points is that?

You wield that thing like a talisman!

That guy should be our mascot

[Roswells, Art]

That's right.

I've heard rumors that the guy wasn't an Indian but of Italian descent but not sure if that rumor was true.

[Dr. MD MD]

One can't prove a negative, but 50+ years of constant and extensive in-depth indie investigation has turned up nothing of any substance. And there have been no deathbed confessions to any trusted figure (though we know we can't trust anybody; they're all in on it).

But keep up the dream...it's fun to postulate and it keeps the cranks out of real mischief.

Well, that's just it, isn't it? That's the real game, in trusting who gets to pick who we trust and who we don't. I'm not impressed or convinced by the official choices in that regard.

Did you hear how he was cleansing people on the air  ?

I think I heard that too.

Scathing posts on a forum are one thing.  Dozens of witless shitheads calling on open lines to heckle her and waste everyone's fucking time is quite another.

like calling for bellgabbers to phone bomb noory? was that not wasting everyones time? its all coming back. And she said art asked three times for them to do it. Sad, but its just probably people giving back what they saw put out.
I have not and do not have time to do such things to a radio host but those who do it should not be surprised when it comes back on them.

Instead, we could say we love Coast to Coast?  C'mon guys, Art has come on to ask us three times to do him this favor.  It's a phone bomb on the Nooron, who is a complete sleaze.  We can hold our nose to get past the screener.

Dark Matter Network rules the night.  How hard is that?

This video is a little longer and that's too bad because there's only one really good part--George Bush says that the Warren Commission report will "always be the final determination of the truth of this incident because Gerald Ford put his name on it and Gerald Ford could always be trusted."

FUCK YOU.

[Roswells, Art]

Yeah, he cleaned a bellgabber.

I do still feel better. What can I say? I don't think I'll be firing my naturopath or allopath anytime soon, however.

Probably didn't have any degree of Native American ancestry, but claimed it and lived it.

It is nice to read on the wiki page how the Native American honors for him tactfully pointed out that he wasn't actually Native American. Many of those old time actors were awful in portraying the Indian perspective.

It's all in very stark contrast with her "nice girl" radio personality. Lots of on-air people have pasts, of course, but this is just a particularly unfortunate past for her to have.

Maybe if they do ditch the seat-warmer role for her, she should just change her on-air identity to Radio Bitch. It might be more convincing and entertaining, although I don't see how it would fit with paranormal stuff.

Nah - the 4chaners aren't doing this to Heather as some kind of karmic retribution; I doubt that any of them know the details of her posting history here as well as you seem to.  They're doing it just to be assholes, because they think that being an asshole is funny.

And you're comparing apples and oranges.  The corporate psychos at C2C had been caught red-handed poaching Art's guests and threatening to blacklist them if they went on his show.  That's some seriously twisted shit right there.  And the "phone bombing" she and Art were talking about was the idea to call in and say "Dark Matter rules the night" - a 2-second on-air promotion on the show that Art had built from scratch.  Which could be seen as a public service, since most people who listen to C2C would rather hear Art than Snoory anyway.  (Although personally, I hated the idea - I've never believed in lowering yourself to the proximity of your adversary's level)

But all of that aside, anyone who can rationalize an entire night of dipshits making up long fake stories just so they can say "musky bottoms" and thereby amuse the 5-9 year-old demographic, is deeply ethically corrupt.

I think Tommy has already claimed that title

I was greatly amused, so count me in with the kiddies and take away my purity card.  The idea of middle-aged men lurching to the telephone in the middle of the night and stumbling their way through a dubious narrative just to say "musky bottom" to a middle-aged woman on the radio is so blessedly innocent that it feels like we're back in the good old days of Prince Albert in a can.

I've heard rumors this guy wasn't really a Klingon.

Yes, the "phony phone call." Other kids did that. I never did it myself. Never ever.

Kennedy was the target of an assassination.

Lots of people believe that one too.

Really?  Weird.  It didn't strike me as either funny or "innocent."  I think I was about 8 the last time I found potty-style humor amusing, and by about 10 I realized that my time and attention are too valuable to waste on puerile idiocy.  It struck me as wicked, not innocent; deliberately endeavoring to ruin a show like that and waste every listener's time on lies and the same vapid prank.

But I suppose that Rush Limbaugh and Donald Trump's stellar successes prove that an alarming percentage of American males possess the depth and conscience of Ted Bundy.

It occurs to me that we're a fallen empire.  America seems now to largely consist of infantile simpletons with selfish and cruel streaks a mile wide.  I guess we deserve this collapse into a food service economy, and to let someone else have a go at excellence, innovation and integrity for a change.  But that's not a change I can cheer.

Well, this is really the question in terms of the scenario you cite from this author. Blaming other people for mistakes happens all the time. But in this circumstance, with these stakes, with the parties involved? And to do it successfully for all this time? I just don't see it.

I can't even get past the point of the Secret Service team leader telling his boss that no agent fired his weapon and that the kill shot must have come from a sniper (one place such a coverup would have to start).

Not necessarily the kill shot, because the shot by which Oswald accidentally connected to JFK's neck might've turned out fatal even the head shot from Hickey had never happened.  But blowing the prez's brains out is embarrassing no matter how you look at it.

There've been repeated threats to abolish the Secret Service or at least take away from it responsibility for presidential family security.  All agencies seek to survive intact, and adverse publicity such as this is something they'd do anything to squelch.
