On December 16, 2017, investigative journalists Leslie Kean and Ralph Blumenthal published 'Glowing Auras and Black Money: The Pentagon's Mysterious U.F.O. Program' in the New York Times, accompanied by the release of the FLIR1, Gimbal, and GoFast videos. The article revealed AATIP's existence, Elizondo's resignation, and the Pentagon's acknowledgment that it had been studying UFOs. This single article fundamentally shifted the Overton window on UFOs: the term 'UAP' replaced 'UFO,' Congress began holding hearings, the military established reporting procedures, NASA launched its own study, and the topic transitioned from fringe conspiracy theory to mainstream national security concern. It was arguably the most consequential piece of journalism in the history of the UFO phenomenon.
