Ross Coulthart's disclosure warning lands thirty times above NewsNation's norm

The investigative journalist's latest Reality Check segment passed 200,000 views within its first day, on a channel where new uploads usually open with a few thousand.

Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 317,497 views a day, 33 times a normal first day on this channel (9,521).

NewsNation already runs one of the busier channels among news broadcasters of its size, drawing more daily views than the likes of ABC News (Australia) and CBN News. Even so, one upload has pulled well ahead of the rest.

"'Catastrophic disclosure' is coming, Ross Coulthart warns | Reality Check" is moving at roughly thirty times the pace of a typical first day on the channel. A new NewsNation video normally settles in quietly. This one did not.

The name in the title helps explain the interest. Coulthart, an Australian investigative journalist, has become NewsNation's best-known voice on UFOs, or UAPs as officials now call them. In 2023 he conducted the network's interview with former intelligence officer David Grusch, whose claims about hidden government programs helped put the subject in front of Congress. Talk of "disclosure" from Coulthart is the kind of phrase his audience notices.
