UFO or CIA? Agency Takes Credit For ’50s and ’60s Sightings

The Central Intelligence Agency had some fun Monday tweeting out its most popular stories of the year.

No. 1? “Reports of unusual activity in the skies in the ’50s? It was us.”

That’s right - a CIA report from 1998 was the most-read story from 2014. It’s titled, innocuously enough, “The CIA and the U-2 Program, 1954-1974” is written by Gregory W. Pedlow and Donald E. Welzenbach.

And it has a whole section about UFOs.
