Navy Reports Describe Encounters With Unexplained Flying Objects - The New York Times

Ralph Blumenthal and Leslie Kean lend context to the eight Naval pilot reports gained by The War Zone's Tyler Rogoway and Joseph Trevithick through the FOIA (see Here Are The Navy Pilot Reports From Encounters With Mysterious Aircraft Off The East Coast). The Times mentions pilot avoidance of speculation both in those reports and in interviews about the origins of the unknowns. Nonetheless, Keith Kloor seems so overwhelmed by the occasional stories from The Gray Lady that he asks Will the New York Times Ever Stop Reporting on UFOs? Kloor continues to attack Luis Elizondo, whom subsequent information seems to support, and then blames Kean and Blumenthal for failing to mention Elizondo in their article (Neither did Rogoway and Trevithick). Kloor states without indicating how to check him that "Over the last few years, the paper has published more than a dozen UFO-related stories." (Out of how many hundreds of stories?) Kloor also seems "hard-pressed to find any mention of wily UFOs" in "the credentialed industry press"--demoting The War Zone's Tyler Rogoway to "a military blogger" and failing to mention the Task and Purpose piece we reviewed on May 17th. A National Review Plus Member is moved by the general occasion to ask whether Aliens Exist? This putative review of Sarah Scoles' new book They Are Already Here: UFO Culture and Why We See Saucers tells us rather more about the reviewer's mindset than it does Scoles' tome. But it praises Scoles for her "crash course" for recent happenings in ufology and the origins of the UFO subculture. (WM)
