In an email to beta testers, the company said the site's goal is to "track the most influential voices in a space" and to surface the news that's actually worth "paying attention to."
This will be the first time that The Times has collaborated with a TV broadcaster for an entertainment-based program, representing yet another pivot in the media company's attempt to build a sustainable digital subscription business as print revenue continues to decline.
The initial set of files housed on the site will include those containing unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP) videos, photos, and original source documents from across the entire U.S. government. The materials have been reviewed for security purposes, but many have "not yet been analyzed for resolution of any anomalies," the Department's statement read.
