The War of the Worlds is an episode of the American radio drama anthology series The Mercury Theatre on the Air. It was performed as a Halloween episode of the series on October 30, 1938, and aired over the Columbia Broadcasting System radio network. Directed and narrated by actor and future filmmaker Orson Welles, the episode was an adaptation of H. G. Wells's novel The War of the Worlds.
The first two thirds of the 60-minute broadcast were presented as a series of simulated news bulletins, which suggested to many listeners that an actual alien invasion by Martians was currently in progress. Compounding the issue was the fact that the Mercury Theatre on the Air was a sustaining show (it ran without commercial breaks), adding to the program's realism.
In the days following the adaptation, however, there was widespread outrage and panic by certain listeners who had believed the events described in the program were real.[1] The program's news-bulletin format was described as cruelly deceptive by some newspapers and public figures, leading to an outcry against the perpetrators of the broadcast

Comment by Feather Winger on August 4, 2012 at 1:43pm This is video of event referenced by somesayimnot. It is lovely and Dr. John Edward Mack and his research associate do a very sensitive job of allowing the children to describe what they saw and experienced. The children were brave, thoughtful and examples of how I hope we would handle such an encounter.
Comment by 9Ball on August 3, 2012 at 7:41pm It was a radio show, it had to be dramatic that was the point. It's entirely possible that the media or whoever would be reporting on this could spin it how they wanted and cause fear. But that's assuming they know nothing about how people work and don't even try to communicate. There's so many approaches they could use to try to make us feel at ease, and there would be no reason to assume they were hostile unless they were actually attacking, though most people might not think that through. Supposedly the ships themselves have a calming effect. Personally I think the best way to break the ice would be to show a sense of humor.
however..there was report of a landing..Idk if there were enough to call it "mass" in south Africa...where a bunch of South African children claim that they saw extra terrestrials get out of a space craft..and that these et's talked to them with telepathy..I need to find this source. But there is some evidence of what could happen. But then again, they were children..and children might be less frightened by such things than adults! :)
A radio broadcast that was NOT a mass landing, doesn't help us at all. It proves nothing. This was a media-manipulated event and people responded with fear to the manipulation, which was the INTENT of the manipulation. Now, if a genuine mass landing took place, one that was not a manipulation, then we would be in uncharted territory. If we experienced a mass landing of empathetic beings who wanted to talk patiently and wisely with us about how to dig ourselves out of the planetary mess we have created, well maybe we'd sit down and have us a good pow-wow.
