In addition to historical research on media institutions Tracy has done considerable research on media coverage of recent events such as the Sandy Hook School massacre and the Boston Marathon bombing. Because he questioned the official narrative of the Sandy Hook massacre in this research Tracy became the subject of a media frenzy in early 2013. At that time his academic employer argued that Tracy’s work on his personal blog and public pronouncements were “free speech” yet not endorsed by the university. In January 2016 Florida Atlantic administrators terminated Tracy from his position, ostensibly for questioning university policy and failing to file paperwork on his outside activities in a timely manner. Tracy has established a legal defense fund and retained an attorney to further investigate his firing. Website(s):memoryholeblog.com,tracylegaldefense.org
