The Wall Street Journal Covers UAP - My Take

"...a story looking at the recent push for disclosure around UAPs..."

This was how the author (I was under the impression there was only one) described the recent WSJ two-part UAP piece. As promised, I waited until Part 2 came out to fully judge, but the final piece is clearly NOT what was pitched. Part 1 was largely unsourced with no real evidence presented, while Part 2 seemed to not be a "Part 2" at all, but dove in to mostly information that's already been published before with the exception of one thing that did interest me, but I'll get to that a different day because I'm not entirely convinced there's truth to it.

In this video, I will not share any private communication out of respect to the author. Not that there is much to share in that regard (it was all phone calls, primarily), but I do try to respect private communications with anyone if I don't explicitly get permission to share. Though I am happy to share 100% of what I sent over, because, well, I wrote it.

My conversations with the WSJ journo took place over numerous days that stretched out over a couple months. I was first approached on January 21st, and I was called numerous times from then over the course of the following few months. I spent, collectively, hours on the phone throughout those calls helping where I could, and saying I couldn't help where I couldn't if I didn't know. In case anyone wonders, and if it isn't obvious, you don't get paid for your time.

My angle has never been pushing the "alien" hypothesis. Rather, I push hard on why the secrecy exists. If you take most of the skeptical angles on UAP, much of the secrecy, to the extent it goes to, and the tactics that we see to cover it up, doesn't make sense. And as most of the world (and mainstream media) focuses on UFOlogy post 2017, the history (with evidence) shows this goes back much father, some of which, remains unexplained. And with the passage of time, the government loses more and more of that history (like the documents just disappear) and after filing 11,000 FOIA requests or so, I can tell you that although lost documents happen, it seems oddly unique to the UAP topic where the more interesting historical UAP records have all been lost from agencies including the CIA, NSA and Air Force.

So, with that in mind that the records I sent over were not trying to push the "alien" narrative, here is a breakdown of the material. Although I understand story angles can change, and the above list of issues is quite long and would require a book to properly cover, what the story was told to me (which is why I spent time helping) was wildly different than what was published.
