This is a typical attitude and response from skeptics.

In regards to UFO debunking and PSY-ops, CIA, etc.

Although I do not write much about UFOs, what I do write seems to
get dismissed by UFO believers as "debunking." I have, in fact,
been accused of being in the pay of the US government to provide
disinformation on UFOs (during one of my less than half a dozen
radio appearances.) [Truth is I decided long ago, there is no
point in arguing with hardcore UFO believers, but instead when I
do write about these issues, which is extremely rare, I see
myself as presenting my view of them and their activities to the
mainstream public who knows little about these issues. The main
thing I've said is that after 50 years of work UFOlogists have
not accumulated any hard evidence of anything and could not stock
a well-done exhibit in a reputable museum with their findings, or
obtain a decent grant from the government or write a balanced
chapter in a legitimate mainstream science textbook.]

Nevertheless, I am accused of opinionated, agenda-driven
debunking when I write these things.

So, if I'm doing all this work, how come I'm not getting paid for
it?

Which branch of the federal government funds this stuff and how
do I sign up? What is the application procedure?=C2 

Please tell them where to find me. I am in need of cash.

Thank you.
