The account
It reproduced FBI, CIA, military and NSA papers showing that agencies collected UFO reports long after the Air Force said it had stopped, including reports of objects over US bases. It made FOIA documents, not testimony, the backbone of cover-up research.
The sceptical view
Showing that agencies kept files is not the same as showing they hid alien evidence; most documents describe unidentified reports, not conclusions.
