In the wake of little substantive information about the recently-splashed-and-crashed aerial objects, the non-ufological press searches for answers. Here a Wall Street Journal team sketches the questions raised. In the WSJ Opinion sections the past two days, others have drawn or repeated political conclusions behind the UFO “noise.” (Hat tip to Rob Swiatek.) Arjun Walia criticizes The Recent “UFO” Craze In Mainstream News & How It Detracts From A Very Real, Very Mysterious Phenomenon. He’s got some darker theories about what’s behind the present information “management.” Writing for The Atlantic, Marina Koren offers her own views about A New Age of UFO Mania. Koren is more impressed with potential “messages from the stars” than actual data concerning much closer (forget the “otherwordly”) “objects that appear to move with speeds and patterns unlike any known aircraft.” On perhaps the lighter side, Elon Musk Opens Up About UFOs and Aliens. “And I think I’d know,” says Musk, according to Tasos Kokkinidis. For Newsweek Ellie Cook notes a U.S. Senator Warns People to ‘Lock Your Doors’ After Classified Hearing on UFOs. But of the three most recent “decommissions,” President Biden Says UFOs Shot Down over US Airspace Likely Not Connected to China. (WM)
