- jjcon 6y agoWas anything they said here particularly sensational? They didn’t even mention the A word (aliens), just pretty much stated what happened.
- doggodaddo78 6y agoYes, they used to be more conspiracy theory- and fantastical-oriented years ago. In this case, they're still playing fast-and-loose with their interpretation of "journalism." The FBI didn't "confirm" anything. A pilot said he saw something cylindrical fly over and reported it to ATC. That's about all there is to this event. There supposedly were other similar reports of unidentified flying objects tracking airliners around the Pacific Northwest. It makes one wonder if it's an anti-conspiracy theorist trolling secret society of civilian and military pilots having a good laugh. The odds of some "miracle" domestic or foreign tech, or ET explorer robots are vanishingly small.
