Documents / Official release
This release contains White House Exchange Mail records dated January 1998 to October 1999. Most of it is a transcript of a January 29, 1998 press briefing by Press Secretary Mike McCurry covering Iraq, Iran, the budget and the Lewinsky inquiry, plus a 1998 presidential speech. An October 19, 1999 email among Transnational Threats staff forwards a Florida Today article on how scientists expect alien contact would spark a media frenzy rather than a cover-up, describing the 1989 SETI detection protocol.

But anyhow, the poim 34EDAB55.FIN Q Well, to what extent are your decisions about responding to our quest and how the President will ultimately respond, as he said, sooner rather than later, with more rather than fewer answers, driven by what you're reading in tl polls? MR. MCCURRY: I guest the percentage of people who believe me, I he has remained steady. The percentage of people interested in hearing me has surely declined. (Laughter.)
