As Disney Plus prepares to bring in a cheaper ad-supported subscription service, there are fresh reports about how long its ad breaks might be. According to Variety and the Wall Street Journal, the streaming service will run ads for four minutes on movies or shows that last an hour or less. And, officials in the US appear to be taking UFOs a bit more seriously. Yesterday congress held its first hearing in half a century on unidentified flying objects. Pentagon officials said they encourage pilots and other military personnel to report anything unusual they see.
