Japanese Blogger Discredits New Amelia Earhart Documentary After 30 Minutes of
Research
http://jezebel.com/japanese-blogger-discredits-new-amelia-earhart-document-1796805871
A new documentary on the History Channel presented the theory that Amelia
Earhart survived her crash landing, was taken prisoner in Japan, and the
American government has worked for years to cover it up. This theory was largely
supported by a single photograph, which a blogger seems to have unearthed in the
Japanese national archives, immediately disproving the whole thing.
The Guardian reports that military history blogger Kota Yamano published the
photo to his blog in the proper context, finding it after about 30 minutes of
travel book on the South Seas. The book was published in 1935, two years before
death on an uninhabited island in the Pacific. Yamano seems surprised the
timeframe starting in 1930.
The documentary interviews retired US treasury agent Les Kinney, who found a
version of the undated image in the U.S. archives and used it to support the
idea that Earhart and her navigator Fred Noonan ended up on the Marshall Islands
and were killed by the Japanese, though their journey predates the beginnings of
WWII.
Other Earhart obsessives have long contested this conspiracy theory, which has
been around for decades. Such as Ric Gillespie, executive director of the
International Group for Historic Aircraft Recovery, who told The Guardian that
even aside from the blurriness of the figures being described as Earhart and
Noonan, the harbor visuals indicate that the photo was likely taken in the early
guy who has spent the last 28 years doing genuine research into the Earhart
But who knows what new evidence will still arise! There must be more to this
Pacific?
