UFO skeptic criticizes prominent 'believers’ as driven by media attention, not science
"It's really quite astonishing how easy it's been for the UFO people to sort of steer the public's belief in this subject," Dunning said
"You've got people in Congress who are not scientifically minded, who are not well-versed in subjects like astrobiology and astrophysics. And when they are told that, ‘hey, here's some military pilots who have some UFO reports,’ they tend to take it very seriously, as I think most people would," he said.
"They're UFO believers first and veterans second," Dunning said, adding that it’s "very easy to find UFO believers who are veterans." Dunning hosts the nonprofit "Skeptoid" podcast that delves into the science behind urban legends.

According to Brian Dunning there is nothing to see here and this is just a very successful PR campaign that started in 2017.
I know some folks on here agree with Mr. Dunning and are going to love this clip.
Personally, I think Brian Dunning is far from accurate and is underplaying and glazing over the importance of David Grusch, Karl Nell, Jonathan Grey, Lue Elizondo, Chris Mellon, Garry Nolan, The Schumer amendment, the upcoming first hand witnesses and what Marco Rubio has already publicly said about them and the list goes on and on. Not to mention the entire history of the UFO topic.
I think he is being a bit of a donkey here and is trying to trigger UFO believers on purpose for attention and promotion. Or he is just extremely naive about the UFO topic, maybe both.
