Topic: Linda Moulton Howe - PLEASE NO MORE!

[Vatar]

The other night she was interviewing some astrophysicist about solar maximums and minimums.  I really tried to like the segment, but her frightening appearance from an ancient alien interview kept popping into my head. 

Oh does anyone know if Mattel was the manufacturer of the clown mask she had stapled to her face?

I like her.  She is truly a pioneer in her field.  Courageous.  Yes, she needs to pace herself better.  But she is not an emmy awarding journalist for catering to mediocre tastes!

she may have been an investigative journalist in the past but she isn't that anymore.  investigative journalists don't finish sentences for the people being interviewed.  if you listen to her segments/shows you can plainly hear her embellish descriptions as she's conducting interviews.  someone else talks, she repeats it back but with more details, and the interviewee grunts and says "yeah".  not journalism.  that's entertainment.  if that

You'll have to excuse us we are full of hate and discontent on this forum.

its nice to know that I am not alone in my feelings towards Linda Moulton Howe. With all due respect I dont know the woman, I recently learned about her and decided to follow her work and found myself getting bored. The information doesnt go anywhere! All the interviews sound the same!

Can anybody recommend a ufo researcher who is more dynamic and exciting? I really dont care if they are famous or not, I think we place too much emphasis in people who have made names for themselves.

paranormal is it's own little world of celebrity and status.  people start out well meaning - i think - but they get a taste of fame and they completely forget who they were or why they started.  unless you're a total fraud and then you were total bullshit from the beginning

Oh, Eddie, I think I love you.
Oh, wait.  You're too young for me.
Oh, wait.  It's OK.  I'm from Pennsylvania.
Oh, wait.  Too soon.

It's overtime for Linda to retire. Or Coast should retire her annoying presence on the show.
Doesn't anybody have a line to their producers Danheiser & Lyon - just tell them to call up mufon. I'm sure they can provide somebody who can tell stories and has more insight into the material than Linda.

Linda is obviously always trying to pump up her stories as much as possible with ridiculous interviews where you can clearly hear how she already put the answers into the mouths of the interviewees, etc. all to promote her pay-to-see website.
