I really think they're dragging the story out too much. We already know about John's kidnapping at age 6 and the death of his flash clone. We already know ONI are some shady motherfuckers that are probably going to be more overtly villainous in the upcoming releases. They should be using this to explore facets of the lore that we don't already know, and instead they're giving us a (seemingly incompetent) reporter digging up established information at a painfully slow pace.
I'm really confused on that last part.

It unquestionably saved the human species, and they've already effectively pinned the blame on Halsey while simultaneously moving the program to a volunteer basis.
