A professor at Florida Atlantic University, James Tracy, suggested that the Sandy Hook shooting could be a hoax on his blog. The comment stemming from the viral video going around about the Sandy Hook shooting being a Hoax. The professor is currently under scruteny and the school is being pressured to fire him for his statement. The issue being that what the media reported he said and what he actually said is a bit contrived. The media is making it look as though the professor is saying he believes the Sandy Hook shooting didn't occur at all, but what he was really getting at is that the media dropped the ball on how the evidence and news was handled.
When he was asked if he believed that 20 children were killed at the sandy hook shooting, he said "most likely took place". His real greif was that the media wasn't holding itself to high standards as far as the investigation went. As a result of that he beleives that they didn't get to the bottom of most of the things (I'm guessing he means most of the things refferenced in the sandy hook hoax video).
The school is currently backing him saying "He has a right to express his views on his personal blog." So at this point it looks as though he will not be fired.
For discussion sake, do you think he should be fired for his statements?
