Chapter 20
And now we come to the second line of information that has popped up in the past few days. The new movie, The Mothman Prophecies is out now, and there is a great deal of commentary being made in various metaphysical/paranormal research circles. Both Fortean Times and Fate magazines have articles on Mothman. John Keel, the original investigator of the Mothman case writes in the recent issue of Fate:
The most fascinating article in the present offerings is about journalist Rick Moran's 1978 investigation of the Mothman phenomenon. Mr. Moran points out in his article that the protocols of "writers," in generic terms, and "journalists" are not the same. He had the idea that "field researchers looking into cases of the unexplained should adopt the tenets of investigative journalism; to look at the human stories together with the unvarnished facts (insofar as they could be discovered). This might better help us understand strange events than either the logical data and natural skepticism of scientists or the effort of so-called paranormal researchers looking for proof of their pre-existing beliefs." We couldn't agree more. The C's comments on Mothman connected it to a broader phenomenon base which, as we will see, is supported by lateral evidence: And yes, we asked the C's about it:
Which leads to a related series of questions:
After reading John Keel's "Mothman," Moran just assumed that Keel had followed the protocols of the author of popular books and not the more stringent journalistic "rules." He was warned that he ought not to compare Keel with other writers because he was a good researcher and not prone to hyping his subject.
