I've come to the conclusion that George Knapp's claim to being a journalist is as bogus

I don't know about that but his image has some tarnish ..... or maybe flecks of something else on it.

You know what I want for Christmas? Some breakthrough in the UFO field that doesn't involve, even remotely, peripherally, in the slightest way the cast of characters we've grown used to.

All of them should be immediately dispatched involuntarily as the first Martian colonists. Bigelow. Ex-NIDS staff. Knapp and now Corbell. Hit the big chrome handle on the lot of them. Maybe the new anti-gravity toilet would come in handy for this.

I've come to the conclusion that George Knapp's claim to being a journalist is as bogus as Lazar's claim to being a physicist. He's a TV personality and that's all.

I would not put it so strongly as that. Mr. Knapp has done real and original reporting on some important matters, off the beaten path. Yet the gross distortions perpetrated in the Knapp-produced Corbell film, and now his promotion of this "autobiography," certainly give one pause. Also troubling were Mr. Knapp's recent TV reports marking the 30-year anniversary of the first coming of Lazar, which I found very tendentious.

So you are an investigative reporter working in Las Vegas, and you learn of pretty much the biggest story ever. A scientist who works at some secret lab nobody has heard of, part of Area 51, has experience in reverse engineering alien flying saucers, and so on, and he is willing to talk about it. You get him to agree to go on your TV show. You don't spend ten minutes on some due diligence? You can't be arsed to send some intern down to City Hall or the courthouse to do some research on the guy? You don't spend a few minutes and three dollars (it wasn't free back then) calling the august institutions he claims to have degrees from? You know, just to see if they have heard of him? I have some training in journalism (very little, though I considered it as a career path in the wake of the Watergate scandal and the movie, All The President's Men) and that is just ludicrous. It is indefensible. By abdicating that responsibility, he left the work to UFO researchers who needed about three days to debunk the entire mess, including his TV show. Now, after all the facts that have stood unchallenged for decades, he's out there shilling for the fraud. That is not journalism.
 
THE BOB LAZAR FRAUD

December 1997
(Updated January 2011)
By Stanton T. Friedman

Incredible claims have been made about Bob Lazar for years. He supposedly is a physicist with an MS in Physics from MIT and an MS in Electronics from the California Institute of Technology. He was a “Scientist” for Los Alamos National Laboratory, and obtained a job back-engineering UFOs at a very secret site S-4 near Area 51 in Nevada through noted Physicist, the late Dr. Edward Teller.

Supposedly he figured out how saucers work using Element 115 — matter/anti-matter, etc. He was able to steal a small quantity of 115 from the 500 pounds available, but this was stolen back. There was indeed an announcement in early 2004 about the production of 4 atoms of element 115 by operating a huge European accelerator for many weeks. It has a very short half life so there is no way to accumulate pounds of it. He supposedly came forward with his story despite death threats because he thought the public has a right to know. Videotapes are available with his claims.

It is all BANK.

Not one shred of evidence has been put forth to support this story: No diplomas, no résumés, no transcripts, no memberships in professional organizations, no papers, no pages from MIT or Caltech yearbooks. He also mentioned, in a phone conversation with me, California State University at Northridge and Pierce Junior College — also in the San Fernando Valley, California. I checked all four schools. Pierce said he had taken electronics courses in the late 1970s. The other three schools never heard of him.

The page from the Los Alamos National Lab phone book with Lazar’s name on it clearly states that it includes employees of the DOE and outside contractor, Kirk Meyer. “K/M” follows Lazar’s name. This proves he worked for K/M, not LANL.

I checked with LANL’s personnel department for Lazar’s name and that of an old colleague. They found my guy, but not Lazar.

He was publicly asked when he got his MS from MIT. He said “Let me see now, I think it was probably 1982.” Nobody getting an MS from MIT would not know the year immediately. He was asked to name some of his profs, He said: “Let’s see now, Bill Duxler will remember me from the physics department at Caltech.” I located Dr. Duxler. He’s a Pierce Junior College physics prof, and never taught at Caltech. Lazar was registered in one of his courses at the same time Lazar was supposedly at MIT! Nobody who can go to MIT goes to Pierce JC, not to mention the rather long commute between LA and Cambridge, Mass.

I checked his High School in New York State. He graduated in August, not with his class. The only science course he took was chemistry. He ranked 261 out of 369, which is in the bottom third. There is no way he would have been admitted by MIT or Caltech. An MS in Physics from MIT requires a thesis. No such thesis exists at MIT, and he is not on a commencement list. The notion that the government wiped his CIVILIAN records clean is absurd. I checked with the Legal Counsel at MIT — no way to wipe all his records clean. The Physics department never heard of him and he is not a member of the American Physical Society.

When he declared bankruptcy in the mid 1980s for almost $300,000.00 he listed his occupation as a self-employed film processor. With MS degrees from MIT and Caltech? Caltech would not have accepted him for an MS program, if he already had one from MIT.

His propulsion scheme sounds good (as do many science fiction stories), but makes no real sense especially in view of how difficult it would be to add protons to #115. Gravity wave amplification sounds great but what does it mean?

He could not have gotten a Compartmentalized Security clearance having operated a brothel. His W-2 form from the Department of Naval Intelligence totals under $1000.00, at most a week’s pay for a scientist. You can’t get a security clearance in a week.

Scientists leave trails. Lazar is NOT a scientist. He couldn’t even answer scientific questions put to him. An excellent review of Bob’s “Physics” can be seen at web.archive.org/web/20061220030435/http://www.serve.com/mahood/lazar/critiq.htm.

I should add that Bob is a bright and talented guy who operated a jet powered car, put on fireworks displays, and apparently helped physics professors working at the Los Alamos Meson accelerator facility.


Editor’s update: Element 115, which lies directly below bismuth in the Periodic Table, does exist as mentioned above. It was first synthesized in a particle accelerator in 2003 by a joint team of Russian and American scientists, and since 2016 has officially carried the name moscovium. Like all superheavy synthetic elements, it’s highly radioactive and short-lived. So far only about a hundred atoms of it have been prepared, with atomic weights ranging from 287 to 290. Moscovium's half-lives increase directly with atomic weight, however — from 0.0037 seconds for 287Mc to 0.650 seconds for 290Mc. Should some other technology come on line capable of synthesizing these kinds of elements with higher atomic weights, or similar natural cosmic processes be discovered, it’s conceivable heavier moscovium isotopes might turn out to be relatively stable.

Thanks for posting this. I had not seen it in a long time. Old Stan was an excellent writer, and efficient too. In less than 900 words, he totally demolishes a huge, bogus story. Anyone buying Lazar's nonsense after seeing that is deluded.

With Jeremy Corbell shilling for the fraud and with that pathetic movie they made Corbell has proven himself to be no different and in the same light as Michael Horn is to Billy Meier...Wastewater that needs to be drained from ufology...

This for me is why it was shocking to see TTSA publish that abomination of a book on Lazar...They seriously damaged their reputation with me, I really could care less what TD has to say anymore, if TTSA cleans up their mess and flushes Delonge that would be a good start and distance themselves from Corbell, Lazar, and Knapp...I say Knapp as well because I agree with what @Double Nought Spy said about him, he's no better than Corbell in this Lazar debacle, what their doing is not practicing journalism, they're carpet baggers (unscrupulous opportunists)...

Sorry, rant over...lol

The shadow

The shadow knows!
it is safe to say that without George Knapp, Lazar would have been flushed a long time ago.
 
He should never have been on TV as "Dennis" or whoever the first time, in shadow or some other dramatic contrivance. Any reasonably competent cub reporter would have turned up several big red flags before it ever got to that. Knapp's idea of vetting such a guest was, as far as I can tell, ride around with him for a day or two and lap up his bullshit. The guard at the gate at Los Alamos saying "Hi Bob" was apparently enough to clinch it for him. Was he really that naive?

Bob Lazar Says the FBI Raided Him to Seize Area 51's Alien Fuel. The Truth Is Weirder

New documents obtained by Motherboard show why the FBI raided the Area 51 insider's scientific supply company.


To date, there’s never been any tangible evidence proving Lazar ever set foot inside Area 51, much less worked on alien spaceships or obtained any mysterious elements.

For some ufologists, Lazar is a black eye on a field they desperately hope to see achieve mainstream legitimacy.
