Editor-in-Chief James B. Meigs Tackles 9/11 Myths at New York’s 92nd Street Y

October 18, 2011 5:00 PM Text Size: A . A . A The 92nd Street Y?s lecture series, one of most distinguished public forums in New York City, has featured such notables as Bill Clinton, Mikhail Gorbachev, Margaret Thatcher, and Nobel Peace Prize winner Elie Wiesel addressing important issues of the day. On Wednesday, Oct. 19, at 7 pm, PM editor-in-chief Jim Meigs takes the stage to deliver a lecture titled ?9/11 Conspiracies Rebuffed.?

Conspiracy theories about the coordinated terrorist attacks of 9/11 have persisted for the past decade, with hundreds of books and thousands of web pages devoted to idea that the U.S. government encouraged, permitted or actually carried out the attacks. Meigs will refute the most prevalent theories with science, hard evidence and a healthy dose of common sense. ?Like so many others, I was in New York on September 11, 2001,? Meigs writes in his foreword to the second edition of the PM book Debunking 9/11 Myths, ?I am proud to have played a small part in ensuring that the events of that day are remembered honestly and well.?

?9/11 Conspiracies Rebuffed,? happens at the 92nd Street Y, 1395 Lexington Ave., New York, N.Y. For tickets, click here.
