FUD spreading, good example of

During a quick check on the latest UFO-related news I stumbled on this article from about a week ago, which I liked because here is someone intelligent echoing my own standpoint: "yes UFO's are real and we should be thinking about what that means". It's promoting a history channel show which is also a good example of their strategy - taking the information public because we're not getting any traction where it matters in government.

In the same search results it is possible to see the following which on face value appears to be a rebuttal of some kind:

https://www.space.com/ufos-real-but-not-alien-spaceships.html

Both articles contain the key information: "We know that UFOs exist. This is no longer an issue," he said. "The issue is why are they here? Where are they coming from and what is the technology behind these devices that we are observing?"

The latter article quotes the SETI guy (Seth Shostak) but does not challenge the claims. Yes, the guy really does try to compare military computer software to Microsoft Windows and explain away the appearance of UFO's as 'bugs in the recent upgrade'. Laughable, but his observation is interesting: "The sightings always recede to the edge of what technology allows you to do," Shostak said. "The aliens are kind of keeping pace with technology." Does that mean an automated surveillance network would be immediately countered by their tech?

FWIW Similar levels of denial can be seen in the short-sellers comments about Tesla on public forums - at this point in history there is still a lot of monied interests needing TSLA to fail and to that end they have saturated most media with negative commentary to help achieve their goals.
