I am an investigative reporter, political writer, literary journalist, media analyst and creative nonfiction writer whose work has been widely published in major media outlets and journals. Most of my recent work explores the intersection of gun violence and misinformation and how journalists cover mass violence, the subject of my book-in-progress.
"Truth for the Dead: A horrific mass shooting. A heinous conspiracy theory. And grieving parents' 10-year quest after Sandy Hook." Boston Globe Magazine, August 2022. Winner of the New England Newspaper & Press Association's 2023 Award for Human Interest Feature Reporting and the Globe's nominee for the Pulitzer Prize for Explanatory Reporting.
In this virtual presentation, I show how erroneous news coverage helped to spur conspiracy theories about the 2012 mass shooting.
