What is destined to become the most popular video on HuffPost over the next few days is of a purported UFO approaching the Olympic Stadium in London as fireworks are going off during opening ceremonies. Outside of porn, UFOs are probably the most clicked upon subject matter on the web. They are also increasingly recorded with the proliferation of camera phones. But no explanation is generally acceptable to all observers. Each event is considered separately and often dismissed as a camera artifact or light flare or aircraft lights or blimps. But all of them?
Mainstream media has been mostly uncomfortable with the subject. Even The Huffington Post, which is more or less now a part of traditional media, publishes UFO stories under its "Weird News" category and when, invariably, a local news station gets video of something unexplainable from a viewer, the recording ends up at the back of a newscast and prompts Bob and Suzy Goodhair to make comments about "little green men." The subject makes a lot of people uncomfortable and, consequently, they have to be dismissive. Hell, I'm going to get grief for even bringing up the topic.
