'Project Blue Book' Is Based on a True U.F.O. Story. Here It Is - The New York Times

"It's already hard enough for those trying to understand the truth about government involvement with U.F.O.s without mixing fact and fiction." Thus Ralph Blumenthal and Leslie Kean--who along with Helene Cooper broke the December 2017 story about a secret Pentagon UFO program still active today--about the new History Channel tv series "Project Blue Book." So Blumenthal and Kean set about to correct that story. We get Nick Redfern's take in About "Project Blue Book": My Views. "This new show blurs the lines to a point where many may not realize what amounts to fact and what amounts to fiction," writes Redfern, who was "hugely unimpressed and the show did a disservice to the real George Gorman" of the pilot episode. Rich Reynolds' view of Project Blue Book - Number Two (Exactly), about the series's second installment, makes no bones about how the article's title should be interpreted. And Mark O'Connell's My Wild UFO Trip tells us how he, as the author of the excellent (and only) Hynek biography The Close Encounters Man, was asked to fact-check the New York Times article for Kean and Blumenthal. His post concludes with "And I know for a fact that Dr. Hynek is rolling over in his grave." (WM)
