After the horror of Sandy Hook, an assault on truth began

Barbara Demick reviews Elizabeth Williamson’s book, which she calls “meticulously reported,” and says Lenny Pozner comes through as its central figure: the father of the youngest victim, who first tried to reason with hoaxers by releasing Noah’s records. When that failed, Pozner and a network of volunteers turned to pressing Facebook, YouTube and Google to take down the worst content, a campaign the review links to Infowars being removed from major platforms in 2018. Demick also traces how Sandy Hook denial led to later conspiracy movements such as Pizzagate.
