Why did the news reporters only jump on the UFO sighting in Texas...?

Question

...when this shows 7 other sightings in Jan. 2008 in other places that we didn't even hear about?

Answer 1

Most UFO sightings, unless there's evidence (which there never seems to be), are covered by local stations on a slow news day.  It's up to the local producer what sort of stories air.  Perhaps it was a busy day in the other places.  Perhaps the producers there didn't want to waste precious air time on something that isn't really news.
