Bob Dean and the other "crackpots" as you call them will always attract the media (and people) like a magnet. Why? Because they have something "incredible" to offer. Like "I handled the Top Secret NATO blah blah UFO assessment which said they were real." In 1987 Bill Moore was fawned all over by the media when he released the MJ-12 documents. Now once all the crackpots become "old news" the only way they can stay in the limelight is a recycle of their story, or "new information" ACC is one giant example of that. On another bent, look at what gets the most media coverage in America: The accidents, crime, and crackpots. Leading examples in recent memory princess Di's accident, OJ trial, and Heavens gate cult. Just some thoughts, Cheers, Roberts
