What’s the BBC Got Against UFOs?
The mainstream press has for decades remained ignorant of ufology and mocked those who take it seriously, but they have everything they need to break the biggest story of them all.
Late Friday afternoon, June 25 as predicted, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence spoon-fed the media nine unclassified pages of the UAP Task Force report, reporters’ appetites having already been whetted by Florida Senator Marco Rubio’s boilerplate comments about it being “an important first step,” etc.
Journalists need to start working on the next step.
To be sure, the new seriousness in mainstream media regarding UFOs is a refreshing change. Disclosure activist Steve Bassett reported today he’s archived more than a thousand articles in the last few years. Coverage by the New York Times, CBS News, Reuters, and New Yorker magazine, among others, has been admirable in recent weeks. But problems remain, and BBC across the pond this past week, in humiliating fashion, claimed the top prize in illustrating what those are.
