Ross is diving deep into the “woo” territory, and I couldn’t help but share this clip that popped up on my timeline:

I used to think of Ross as a fairly level-headed journalist, someone who approached claims with healthy skepticism and demanded proof. Even when he was vague about giant UFOs buried underground or mentioned an orb he reported on without giving any updates, I still saw him as more focused on tangible evidence than the mystical side of things.
However, the clip above raises concerns for me about Ross’s objectivity and whether he’s becoming too aligned with unproven concepts.
I personally believe in some of the “woo” elements and think many will eventually be validated—it just requires time and solid evidence. Actual demonstrations would be incredibly helpful.
While Ross sharing that the phenomenon is guiding him and manifesting through his daughter is intriguing, it feels more like a captivating narrative without proof to back it up.
If NHI (Non-Human Intelligence) prefers to communicate solely with those who have psychic abilities, it raises questions about accessibility and could even stifle critical inquiry.
By claiming that NHI is influencing his journalism, Ross might inadvertently dismiss the need for evidence from skeptics.
It’s pretty disheartening. Independent voices advocating for proof of extraordinary claims are increasingly rare, and perhaps I placed too much faith in Ross’s professionalism.
At this stage, he seems more akin to Chris Bledsoe than a straightforward journalist. I hope Ross eventually reveals the location of this alleged massive UFO, but right now, he often sounds like someone insisting, “You don’t have to believe it; it’s true anyway.”
It’s definitely concerning when someone you viewed as a rational voice in the UFO community starts leaning into more mystical interpretations. I get the frustration about Ross’s shift from a critical approach to one that seems more focused on personal experiences and narratives that lack solid evidence. It raises questions about his objectivity and whether he’s prioritizing storytelling over journalistic integrity.
While I appreciate the intrigue of the phenomena he discusses and the idea that there may be aspects of reality yet to be understood, it’s vital that claims are backed by tangible evidence. The notion that NHI (non-human intelligence) is guiding his work, and potentially manifesting experiences in personal lives, can feel like a departure from the straightforward investigation that many of us hope for in this field.
Your point about the gatekeeping aspect is really interesting, too. If some of these experiences are only accessible to those with “psychic powers,” it does leave many people out of the conversation and makes it harder to question or seek proof. Skepticism is crucial, especially when discussing extraordinary claims.
In the end, journalistic integrity should come first, and it sounds like you’re hoping for more transparency and evidence to support these astonishing claims. Let’s hope Ross can find a balance between exploring these fascinating narratives and adhering to the standards of evidence and critical thinking that initially made his work compelling.
