Obama Inauguration UFO
The bad journalism award for this week goes to TBS for running an extended segment on yesterday’s Evening News about a UFO sighting at Barack Obama’s Inauguration:
Their report relied on a very low quality YouTube video of the event and they took internet rumors at face value. They even consulted a Japanese UFO experts who seemed to agree with the theory that it was an alien space ship and not a bird.
The truth about the object was shown a little later when TV Asahi’s Super News aired its own segment about the UFO:
Unlike TBS, they obtained a high quality video of the event from CNN. The video quite clearly shows that the object was a bird.
