James Tracy (professor)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
James F. Tracy (born October 12, 1965) is a 21st century American professor.
Tracy holds a PhD degree, awarded by the University of Iowa[1] in 2002.[2] He is a professor of communications[3] at Florida Atlantic University[4] at Boca Raton.[5] He has espoused the view that some American mass shootings did not occur, but are hoaxes perpetrated by a conspiracy. He maintains that the Boston Marathon bombing was hoax perpetrated by the United States Government[5] and espoused the view that the Sandy Hook massacre also did not occur[3][6] and was a hoax perpetrated by the United States Government[7] (there is a "Sandy Hook truther" movement to this effect).[8][9][10][11]
This latter belief led Tracy to, allegedly, harass the parents of a Sandy Hook victim.[3][4][7][12][13] This resulted in Florida Atlantic University initiating a procedure to dismiss Tracy,[3][4][12][13][14][15][6] who has tenure[13] (As of December 2015 this remains in process). This was widely reported in the press.
In January 2016 Tracy was fired from his job at Florida Atlantic University according to Washington Post.[16]

Why James Tracy Should Resign 108
In addition to blithely accepting official narratives they have not seriously interrogated, these would-be thoughtful and meticulous academics carelessly adopt and wield the “conspiracy theorist” pejorative without deeper consideration of its etymological meaning and cultural significance. In this way they awkwardly violate the exact professional code and etiquette to which they claim an academic should adhere while contradictorily upholding a popular perspective they might otherwise–following their own criteria–see fit to reject.[1]
Disparaging labels draw on and reflect the cultural and political beliefs of the given historical era. They may be used as disciplinary devices that at once legitimate certain worldviews and their attendant assumptions while designating others as dangerous and verboten. As the histories of many religions and political regimes suggest, concerted and vocal alarm directed toward unorthodox thought has typically been the focus of the state-sanctioned intellectual, reflecting the prevailing interests and beliefs of the given time.
With this in mind, the text of the colleagues’ letter is presented with various discursive trappings of particular periods in American history.

bombing may have been a "mass casualty drill," Tracy wrote in Memory Hole, which has at least 3,200 followers. "What is now evident is a stark divergence between the narrative description of excessive carnage ... and at least a portion of the video and photographic documentation of the bombing itself," he wrote.
Tracy, 47, who could not be reached for comment, teaches classes that examine "the relationship between commercial and alternative news media and socio-political issues and events," according to his FAU bio. One of his classes is titled "Culture of Conspiracy."
Tracy's Sandy Hook postings received nationwide attention and prompted FAU to issue him a formal reprimand.
