But there is still this nagging voice in my head that states if it was as important as they are hyping, we would have already seen numerous press conferences about it.
That nagging voice is called rationality. Embrace it.

I doubt it's disclosure for a number of reasons.
1. While I do think the US has perhaps the most extensive collection of UFO files - I think most of them are not the spectacular revelations some would expect here. When disclosure does come, it will probably look a lot more like France's UFO's files.
2. As reasons mentioned above, disclosure would be a huge story - one that couldn't be kept from the news media. Whoever covered it first... whoever "broke the story"... would surely be in line for a Pulitzer Prize. The History Channel simply doesn't have the sort of prestige or resources necessary to secure a story like that.
It may be possible that a disclosure "date" was set, and the History Channel was preparing preemptive programming for the event, such as the case with movie premiers. However, be that the case, then you would expect to see similar teasers from other networks. Something like this would like expecting the History Channel to gain exclusive broadcasting rights to New Year's Eve.
3. The date makes no sense. 44 million years? Disclosure of alien contact would be the biggest event in human history - but we've only been around as a species for about 150,000 years - give or take 50,000 years. One could claim that contact is the biggest event for life on Earth in general... but life on Earth has been around for roughly 3.8 billion years. Even complex multicellular life has been around over 500 million years.
