There's a phrase that fits this show now, except when Knapp is there... He who is all things to all people is nothing to everyone...

I think that the shows owners realized the show was a cash cow, even thought is was making certain people upset, so they brought in Noory to homogenize things, but keep raking in the dough....

I agree with this totally and completely. I dont hate George Noory AT ALL, he's just too nice for me to hate - but this is what makes him a shitty host. He tries to be everything to everyone. He's unopinionated, too friendly to ask "juicy" questions... Basically he is safe. I dont think hes a bad person, he just isnt cut out for this.

I listened to the first show about this and one that proceeded the revelation that the photo was fake. It was unbelievable. I can't grasp how someone could blame Art. He never, with any of his guests, claims that what they're saying is true, or real, or even that he agrees with it. He allows people to express themselves and their findings, and with that, it can only be expected that he's going to have a fake every once in awhile. Art treated Courtney no different than any of his guests, and it is not his responsibility to edit himself because there might be a crazy cult out there looking for an excuse to kill themselves. Its fucked up that anyone held him accountable for this, a radio host, for a bunch of adults decision to kill themselves. In the program after it came out that the picture wasn't real, Art seemed genuinely depressed and slightly on edge. He seemed like he felt obligated to talk about it, partially due to guilt, but from what I heard he seemed to be avoiding the subject unless a caller brought it up. I didnt really understand why it was such a big deal until I read the article, though, because I didnt know this was directly related to the Heaven's Gate cult. Now, looking back, its quite sad to see how guilty Art felt about something that wasnt his fault.

              This is I tend to agree with...and your name is very cool. Any name that oversensitive busybodies will throw a fit over is ok by me.

Thank you!!

My personal opinion is that they talk too much and too seriously about apocolyptic scenarios and preparation for them, and I also find the constant spiritualitists and "anciet alien" type shit boring. They should have more amateurs, regular people with interesting things to talk about. I dont know, they need more, new things to talk about!
