To sum up- legitimate news outlets wanted time to delve into the facts of the case, but the reporters wanted it published quickly. Now they have a very questionable story. This is why journalists need to be working with scientists when it comes to reporting sensational science stories.

Indeed, but this is about the "huge" news regarding a guy who never saw anything with his own eyes giving congressional testimony about what a guy who knows a guy that he knows told him about UFOs. True believers are salivating over it.
