Documents / Official release
This Clinton Presidential Library release gathers White House email records filed under "Area 51" and dated April 1995 to April 2000, with withdrawal sheets for five emails withheld on privacy or advisory grounds. The released messages include a 1995 tip about a UFO radio show and a 1997 exchange with the science advisor's office about a Good Morning America interview request. That request concerned claims that government employees were sickened by hazardous wastes at Area 51. Other items are forwarded news links and personal notes.
