William Moore is an American author who co-wrote an influential early book reviving public interest in the Roswell incident in 1980, and who was later connected to the controversial MJ-12 Documents Leak.
Assessment
Moore publicly admitted at a 1989 conference to having passed disinformation to fellow researchers at the behest of intelligence contacts, a startling admission that significantly damaged his standing in the research community and fueled ongoing questions about deliberate disinformation campaigns within ufology.
