Hey, remember how the infamous War of the Worlds radio broadcast by Orson Welles and his crew triggered a nationwide panic that Earth was actually being invaded? Okay, so most of us weren't there at the time but we've all heard how that happened, right? Right. Only Jefferson Pooley and Michael Socolow say it didn't happen; that the number of Americans who took to the streets was tiny and was then grossly exaggerated. Sounds to me like they're right.
