psychological attack on the American public ...can't help but think it's much more subtle nowadays...though the few of us who think for ourselves see the truth.
In 1980 mount St. Helen erupted and believe it or not, Americans living there and surrounding areas once again thought it was the end of the world. Many went so fat as selling their houses, cars, etc. for almost nothing. To this day I wonder why they sold their stuff if it was the end of the world. Some people never learn or it was a combination of greed and panic.
Interesting. You young people have to understand that newspapers and newscasts were what the American people believed in. Most didn't question a written story. We thought if it was written or spoken of over the air waves that no one would lie to us. No internet of course. Most people never looked anything up or questioned it. Especially the government. They were supposed to be honorable people! I babysat in 1968 for 25 cents an hour and that was good wages! Thanks hwy for sharing. :)
I'm looking to hear the actual radio recording of that night where Aliens attacked America, that day where all of the USA was in Panic cause of some Joke on the Radio.
Could anyone link me to a video that has that? Or maybe a Website? It would be much appreciated.
Also, if you wanna see more Retroperspective, then watch the movie "Teenagers from outerspace" it's a extremely low-budget movie, but the retro-ness gives you a good laugh xD But besides it being low-budget, it's nicely constructed.
@DHGameStudios It wasn't meant as a joke but a play. And do you know you're capitalizing in the middle of a sentence? No offense but didn't your teachers explain that to you? Period at the end of a sentence and all that. You've got to get it right or the papers you turn in aren't going to get good grades. :) I'm almost afraid to watch that movie if you like it. lol No offense young person. I just want you to write better. It's difficult to read otherwise. Salute. :)
War of the Worlds was a test by the Illuminati to see how people would react to news of an alien invasion. Beware of a coming false flag operation to lure the world into forming a one world government.
Great upload, thanks for the trip down memory lane. The 1975 color remake is also online as "The Night That Panicked America", also a good retrospective.
Originally aired on September 9, 1957, LIVE {Monday, 10pm(et), right after "RICHARD DIAMOND, PRIVATE DETECTIVE", the summer replacement for "DECEMBER BRIDE"}. Some of the "recreations" of the original 1938 "Mercury Theater" broadcast, however, are a bit exaggerated...
This is almost to good to be true!THE best show Wells ever did! I read this book and at the time it seemed so scary I had to sleep with my sister!Thank you for uploading!
You're welcome. I like this documentary a lot. Speaking of Orson Welles, sometime in the future I will get around to posting "The Stranger" on hwy61movies. I had it up on my old channel and thought it was quite good.
This has got my vote for the best hoax ever.

I've read that the resulting panic may have been a bit exaggerated by the media at the time also. There seems to be some debate over that.
