In the event of a public First Contact with aliens which are neither friendly nor immediately hostile, how would different governments (real or fictional) show these aliens in public news?

Assume that we do have slightly more advanced technology than today, maybe better energy generation (stable fusion generators with positive net energy) and maybe primitive FTL drives that warp space (so it takes about a week to get to Alpha Centauri. And we make a contact with some aliens that have a colony there (on Alpha Centauri). Aliens are militaristic and expansionist, but do not want to attack humans and are happy to trade. How would the human goverments portray the aliens in public media? Would they show everything as is or would they try to distort the truth? Or show outright propaganda? And how?
