uh... professed davis walking her edwards other work
tracy welcome to the probe to the program
ites admits that they're going to be with you thank you for joining us i
shouldn't try to read and talk at the same time i'm sorry my conduct and bring
it to a confused
armpits fighter stand that
uh... and i've seen several different me accounts of this in some of them
conflict in that's why i wanted to get a gray from you
uh... a you have suggested that
at city hall at the new talent
now this is horrible shes school shooting that
there were multiple shooters uh... let me just run through my list here than
you can tell me where i'm writing i'm wrong and and and
what your take his honest if there were multiple shooters
be at the government's period a couple of the ways see that
somehow the au bon administration did this was a false flag operation order
presumably to
a gun control response and deeds that
this is one of many like this uh... that the same thing happened
uh... in uh... did the shooting aurora colorado that the same thing happened
with the j_f_k_ assassination at the same thing happened i love it
the list goes on on
and and finally dearie wherever i am that this is what you teach at the
college what what what of that is accurate
right
well i don't know where actually to begin but uh... i guess i could begin
with a simple things first that
that is one of the things that i teach at the college by teacher classes
on our journalism and media history and analysis and criticism and so forth
uh... and we look at current events and historical events in the extent to which
shall things might have been messed
one of the things i incorporate for example my classes is project censored
i'm an affiliate
of this past uh... here this answered your book uh... three of my students to
do a story is that appeared in the top twenty five
the our culture conspiracy class that is on political conspiracy theories are
still in more detail than that
is really a matter of looking at a struggle benson cricket events in
greater detail
and uh... attempted to come to terms with those in trying to find out what's
up
what perhaps uh... historians and and needs only a for example most americans
think that you know this this one guy shot abraham lincoln i was the end of
that but there is actually had real conspiracy the conspirators or actually
found in hemant in
somehow one we don't we don't talk about that we don't want to know about that
solo which is
what's the deal is sandy hook
well carter
their is uh... uh... a good deal of uh... conflicting news coverage and
uh...
i didn't begin looking at this and so almost a week after it actually took
place
uh... and when i began to look at uh... at news footage and uh... read articles
and so forth
there is just a lot of material that didn't really fit
the storyline was uh... was uh... changing constantly uh... as a result of
uh...
uh... pronouncements from authorities and things of the like
so uh... while i do not expect that to happen i mean this was
this was a a wild file in internationally being viewed situation
where you've got
a whole bunch of media people who are all minimal millions and millions
hundreds probably a billions of dollars was made
in in terms of you know the media coverage of sandy hook and so everybody
wanted to get this the first story first and you would expect a lot of people to
get a wrong
all that's that's absolutely true that's one of the reasons that i created a hard
time while i'm
i had an effort to uh... to really traced the narrative from uh... prior to
the event uh... right through a console are just the past
best week urself right and they're still a lot of information that uh... somewhat
conflicting and some things
some but actually just uh... went down and i'm real so to speak
in terms of our footage of aerial footage taken by the associated press
uh... via additional shooter suspects we don't know for certain whether or not
they were involved in the event but here you have
one of the worst school shootings and in in modern history one of the worst mass
shootings and these individuals are fair to the way we don't hear from the united
states they were teachers fleeing the scene
well i don't i'm not sure if that's the case dot i believe there there's one
individual may have an account
uh... who was prone down off in the parking lot but then there were two
other individuals that are are up in the uh... up in the woods at least one
individual who has taken away in a police car he has uh... a military uh...
here's camel pants on and the blacktop
uh... so what you know it would i think that in order to uh... to to to
output things that he's
uh... the uh... law enforcement authorities will come out and say you
know that this individual or you know was was was involved in or rather rather
excuse me was that was at the scene was in no way involved and uh... and and put
to rest sergio do u actually think the
that's sandy hook was
part of a
you know it was not just a single deranged kid with with his mom's guns
that it was part of something larger and that it was
actually the promoted by radley at the very least covered up by the obama
administration or are you putting that forward as a hypothesis for your class
as
as a uh... you know okay let's let's take this you know at at at at what's
what's the latin player prayers answered a m advert doctor yo you know it's was
reduce this to its a or push this to the to the farthest answer desk abs extreme
and see if
seeps even holds up
uh... well it's nothing that uh... that i've examined and in the class this is
something that my blog is is
it doesn't for my economic work but at the same time as something that i do is
as something of a journalistic endeavor so do you think that the overall
administration killed those kids
arianna i think that there's too little information that's actually known
uh... at at this point to to draw any any specific conclusions and
mike my primary reasons for writing the pieces
uh... were to ask questions
what's going on here and what are we missing and what why are the media
presenting a particular almost kind of choreograph storyline
and they're a lot of things that are simply not addressed but as you know as
a professor of journalism you know that asking questions implicitly
uh... makes statements i mean if a if and doesn't even need to be on the old
richard nixon are you still beating your wife got a question
it can be you know how it identified
uninjured just in raising the question
you know that i even saying well there's no evidence that the obon administration
wasn't behind this warm maybe they're his evidence that they were
and that that seems to me like
dancing on the wildest edge of this thing
uh... well again i i i i think that is one of the uh... ways in which a major
way in which the media has uh... tend to produce construe this
our call me a a a conspiracy theorist nutty professor i was got uh... silly
questions uh... and we shouldn't you know
really pay attention to him and uh... he is being uh... it all uh... as is to
being cruel to the uh... to the survivors uh... video victims of what
happened but you did you see this not only in sandy hook i mean you you see
this at columbine you see this uh...
yet uh... you know really
in our but most of them
the major treasuries missiles
in from from reading your blog
might not look at columbine but um... certainly nine eleven am oklahoma city
oklahoma city hall himself and and uh...
the uh... junk and exasperation at j_f_k_ in our state
the fairly
well-known political uh...
assessments of nineteen sixties the two most prominent and the kennedys
i certainly think there are a lot of uh... unanswered questions there in some
cases the uh... evidence is overwhelming are that there was a conspiracy to uh...
to eliminate those individual adverse concluded there was a conspiracy to kill
that jack kennedy the questions who was involved in a conspiracy
uh... e to to sandy hook what's again take to satisfy a we have to each of
them i have a little after i'm sorry
just to satisfy me
well idea and i i i'm simply uh... raising questions in and uh... ice out
believed that the media filled us uh... at sandy hook and uh...
they the school's reversible
where forty eight-year you're coming by skype is breaking out the since we
started to drop the music on top in sight
we're going to have a doctor james tracy can read all about it over the memory of
warm water dot com
uh... backing out of presently being with us today
if they stop
