In some countries, UFO stories regularly make front page news in the press, with pictures, more often than not sent in by members of the public, appearing in both tabloid and even the more serious broadsheet papers. Such articles, together with various documentary series shown on TV, can be so convincing that they can make people who had previously rejected the idea of the existence of extra-terrestrial life change their beliefs. Even though some eyewitness accounts come from extremely unreliable sources, some TV programmes, news blogs and articles will carry on publishing them, therefore influencing public views. UFO sightings are commonly used in sensational news reports, and prove just how powerful the media can be in manipulating what we think and what we believe in.
