INTERVIEW: Former New York Times Reporter - Ralph Blumenthal

Despite increased pressure for oversight into UAP programs, officials insisted they had not uncovered any recoveries of extraterrestrial crafts or bodies. However, one person on the UAP Task Force with top security clearance would soon blow the whistle on what he had learned: not only are we not alone, but we may be in danger.

In 1969, the U.S. Government shut down their only program dedicated to researching UFOs. Despite hundreds of incidents still being “unidentified”, the government claimed that there was no likelihood they would ever investigate the subject again. But decades later, reporters uncovered a program buried within the Pentagon analyzing encounters Navy pilots were having with craft that appeared to have technology far surpassing anything known on Earth.

Ralph Blumenthal had a long career working as a reporter for the New York Times. Together with Leslie Kean, he brought the explosive story about a secret government program that had been quietly studying UFOs - regardless of the government's public denials of any such program existing. He later helped bring the incredible story of David Grusch to the public spotlight. His reporting has led to multiple congressional hearings being held on the subject of UFOs. We spoke with him about how he came upon these stories and what the future may hold for disclosure. Visit our website at www.strange-phenomenon.comHosted by Ray TararaWritten & Produced by R.J.
