Brit papers set off frenzy with report of document confirming cover-up of Roswell aliens finding. FBI says: Not so fast
For conspiracy theorists, it sounded like a giant step closer to their "Eureka" moment.
Earlier, the British publication The Sun set the ticker hopping with a report that "real-life FBI X-Files have emerged sensationally claiming flying saucers piloted by aliens did crash on Earth." The Telegraphpublished a similar piece and the Internet did the rest. It wasn't long before their lead was followed by dozens of other publications around the world.

A call to the FBI may have helped, where the only news at the agency's Washington headquarters was that traffic to its website was surging. Rather than constituting new evidence of a cover-up, however, the so-called "Hottel memo" - which the agency never corroborated - has been publicly available for years. The memo is one of thousands of files on an FBI website which essentially serves as a public reading room.
"{The archive} contains information about the most frequently asked for files," according to an FBI spokesman Bill Carter, who said the top two subjects of public interest were UFOs and Elvis Presley. "They've switched back and forth for No. 1 a few times."
Still, the Hottel memo does make for fun reading. The report filed by Washington field agent Guy Hottel on March 22, 1950, summarizes his investigation into a report of a flying crashing near a U.S. military base close to Roswell in New Mexico on - or around - July 2, 1947.
