[Tell It Right]

I'm not saying they support the idea of UFO's existing. I'm saying they're making sure it's a story that's being talked about.

The same with the Hunter cocaine story. It's their wish to debate the details (where was it found, how did it get there, etc.) so that it's talked about longer and uses up bandwidth to make the bribery and stolen election (very real and very important issues) fade away from memory.

You don't know their motive unless you can read minds.

They may be reporting on this subject solely because it is a hot topic (i.e., it sells).

BTW, the New York Magazine article was pretty good for a liberal source. It started off negatively but then covered the issue pretty fairly in the body of the article.
