..There's only 2 images that have been "said" to be legit for this sighting from what I heard said on a documentary. It showed those images in that documentary and one of them was very clear. I can't remember which documentary, plus my mentioning it is extreme hearsay...
....
S: I'm sorry, there was, I told Dave, there was a disc flying outside above Charley 17 and he thought I was pretty much high. But, um, I'm not high and I'm not drinking.
T: Yeah.
S: So, someone got a picture of it. So if you guys see it out there--
T: A disc, like a Frisbee?
S: Like a UFO type thing.
T: Yeah, okay.
S: He got a picture of it.
T: How, how, how high above Charley 17?
S: Well, it was above our tower. So...
T: Yeah.
S: So, if you happen to see anything... (she continues to laugh)
T: You know, I'll keep a peeled eye for that.
S: Okay.....
That's one possibility, that they didn't do their due diligence to determine they were both fake.

But the producers didn't do their due diligence.
Jeff Ritzmann had shown 7 years before this particular show was aired that THEY WERE BOTH FAKED.
He said he had photos and was about to release them soon...and he never did. I really wanted to see what he had, and was disappointed his photos never appeared. Why did they never appear? Your question "Maybe he discovered he'd been duped?" does seem like a possible reason why he never released the photos, what other reason could there be? Only one other possibility immediately comes to mind, and that is maybe he wasn't duped, the photo was genuine, and he had experts analyze it who said it was consistent with the FAA explanation. I mean people did report seeing a hole in the clouds and the FAA explanation is a naturally occurring hole in the clouds which can appear very disc-shaped.
Dan Aykroyd allegedly acquired photos and video of whatever was hanging over O'Hare airport on 7th Nov 2006. But they've never surfaced. Maybe he discovered he'd been duped?
No verified photo ever surfaced, which is kind of odd. I sort of understand why that particular photo might not appear since people inferred they thought United would fire them if they went public, and that was apparently taken by a United employee.
Plus part of the FAA recordings released from the control tower mention someone had a photograph of a disc...
That photo has never surfaced either...

"there were more than fifteen people watching it in the parking lot where I was...so the corroborating evidence can come from more than just airline employees. There are a lot of people out there who haven't come forward yet, and just from the amount of photo-taking I saw, there are a number of photos that haven't yet been released.

If the O'Hare event isn't aliens I don't know what it is. There is incredible footage of these events available and I generally want to see opinions on the similarities between the two events.

The images on page 3 are not edited. You posted some edited images, and you posted a quote that doesn't appear in that same post on page 3.

"I snapped a picture with my camera phone. this is not FAKE. It’s not a hoax, and it looks somewhat similar to the picture posted, however I think the one already posted might be a fake because in that picture the object looks bigger than in the picture I took. I was looking out one of the terminal windows during that time and snapped the pic.

NOTE: As of April, 2007 the lack of provenance regarding this photo, combined with suspicious signs of editing must engender a healthy degree of skepticism. While eyewitnesses have confirmed this is "what they saw," it does not mean this is actually a valid photo of the object.

The anonymous person who submitted the second photo says the first photo (on the left) might be a fake, from your source:
….” I snapped a picture with my camera phone. this is not FAKE.

ATS said the first photo was never really validated either, and may not be a valid photo of the object.

Apparently, that was the opinion of a Victor Martinez (whoever he may be), not of the person that wrote the article.

The more languages we learn the better, knowing how people talk brings us closer to other cultures.

I also don't trust "experts" who claim they can detect an altered photo.
What you really need to do is test them with say 20 images containing a mix of altered and unaltered images and see if they can reliably detect which is which. The results are disappointing in my experience; it's not as easy to tell which images have been altered as some experts seem to think it is. If it's a really bad alteration maybe it's easy to tell, but I've seen very mediocre alterations they thought were not altered.
