George Knapp's Credibility

[pianopraze]

Hey guys, 

Keep in mind that Knapps slumbering career (after the Lazar thing fizzled in the 90's), he finally came back to relevancy back in 2017 with The NY Times MIC (OOPS) drop. He's big time the last 8 years all the sudden AGAIN.

He don't have time for little peons like us, that don't pay for his speaking engagements....

I'd be willing to bet a hundy, he rolled his eyes when he received this request - with no compensation offered.

Hmm. I didn’t think people saw his like this but can see where you thought this.

i subscribed to coast to coast am for years and heard him all the time cohosting and on the show as a guest.

also read his Skinwalker book.

also so him on many many tv shows.

to me he was always around even before the nyt and Corbell… be nice, be nice… um, show.

I like Knapp. Has been in the game for a long time and still going. I don't regularly watch every video that comes out, Appreciate his work when I do come across it.

Get the feeling that he does know more that what he publicly talks about, but does not want to get caught out releasing more sensitive information while congress is working through the whistle blower issues. Having the evidence is a tricky one.

The path to disclosure is hard and narrow. Expecting perfection is asking a lot from those that are trying.

Agree with you.   Same sort of energy as Sgt. Clifford Stone, who resonated that he knew much, much more than he could prove, and even if he could prove it, as long as he spoke behind the safe line, "they" would leave him alone.   Many of us talked with Mr. Clifford on ATS, and there were definite lines he wouldn't cross.   He could have said anything, but he didn't;  he said things like, "I won't talk about that"  or, "you seem innocent, but you ask dangerous questions."    I believe him, as fantastic as his claims sound, and I believe George Knapp.   Might George fluff it up a bit for the series production?   Well, possible, but I don't believe he is a liar.   Lazar.   I read his book.   Saw many interviews.   I think there is an element of truth to what he says, but also think that he has vamped  a bit.  I think he should have produced a sample of element 115, or not mentioned it.   JMO.

It got brought up in some of his early lectures about it. If he did have a sample of it that he wanted to get out, how fast would a national security order get put on it? Put a quite, convoluted and doubtfull end to that story.

Yes, I get that.  He could have given measurements and variables of this element that chemists like me could have tested.  Not saying it didn't exist, and maybe he didn't have the chemistry chops to talk about it, but if you don't have those chops, you shouldn't push the narrative, imo.   I found Lazar to be fairly "truthy", to use a Stephen Colbert term.   I think he saw things that we would be floored to see.

IMO I think George Knapp and the ATS big cheese credibility went out the door when they associated with Tom Delonge and tried to give him credibility . Especially after that disastrous AMA on ATS.

I didn't see DeLonge's AMA as "disastrous".   I thought it was informative.   I read his book "Sekret Machines".   i thought the book was well written, and particularly well researched.   Opinions differ, no problem.

I agree, that AMA from Delonge was a complete waste of time in my opinion.  Same as when he went on Joe Rogan's show.  It was a whole lot of "trust me, but I can't really elaborate on anything".  I never trusted anybody in that TTSA camp.  Nothing against Delonge, but I think he was a puppet for those "ex" intel guys spewing their disinformation.

Yep I think the same. I think he was played and he believed the information he was spoon fed.

No issues with differing of opinions , however the consensus at ats it came across as a disaster and the same with his Rogan interview.

I recall even the big Amigo at ats came across as very annoyed by his responses to the ATS members after that ama, due to the amount of negatives comments towards it.

In short, the man is credible in his mainstream work, but controversial on fringe topics. 

I quite like the fellow.
