one is experienced in doing so, gives words a stilted sound that many listeners
take as phony. Score one for not believing the witnesses.
Score two: When words are spoken over background music, the music
makes an unconscious impression that flavors the emotional impact of the
words. For example, the relentless "approach," louder and louder in intensity,
of the orchestration of the Jaws soundtrack as the shark nears its victim
builds up a feeling of dread even before any action takes place. The
background music for UFO COVER-UP . . . LIVE! is light, pleasant
dance music. While the Russian is speaking of terrifying abductions, the
music is a rousing polka!
Score three: When the Russian says, "The aliens communicated with
the terrified soldiers by mental telepathy," Mike Farrell responds, "Oh,
they used music, just like in the movie Close Encounters." We depend
very much on the reaction of others to set our own reaction. Obviously, if
someone tells you a story and they are laughing, you think the story is
funny. If they are in a panic state while telling it to you, you think of it as
tragic. Throughout of the entire show, Mike Farrell reacted to all the UFO
information with puzzlement, but in an amused and light-hearted manner.
So, for the most part, the audience did too.
Score four: Through the skillful but unobtrusive use of another media
technique, the painted backdrop against which the alien Grays are portrayed
is a bright sunny room overlooking a garden! Nothing to take seriously
there, certainly nothing to worry about.
Also the depictions of the Grays were idealized and did not conform to
witness descriptions, giving the impression of benign Disneyesque animated
characters.
Score five: Another powerful media technique is to trivialize something
important by focusing on a tiny detail. For example, telling the audience
that the aliens "prefer strawberry ice cream" reduces these mysterious life
forms to a childish format.
Score six: We are so accustomed to Hollywood movies that we are
entertained by a "historical" film, but never for a moment truly believe
that the "action" taking place on the screen is real. We know it is rehearsed
and played by actors. When Mike Farell puts the UFO reports in the same
category as the movie Close Encounters, the audience automatically
thinks of the TV documentary UFO COVER-UP ... LIVE! as just another
Hollywood movie. No one writes a letter to the editor of their local
newspaper or phones their Congressman to demand action about a crime
committed in a Hollywood movie.
There is more. One of the women presented in the documentary who
has been abducted by aliens is an acquaintance of mine. Her entire life has
been affected by her terrifying alien contact. The one and only comment
