Journal of 9/11 Studies

The Journal of 9/11 Studies is a peer- crank-reviewed, online, open source pseudojournal that gives 9/11 Truthers a place to just ask questions. Some high-profile Truthers like David Ray Griffin have written articles for the journal. Ironically, in their attempt to appear "credible" and "serious," they've run a number of articles debunking the egregiously unhinged theories like Judy Wood's "space beams" and stuff they've run in their own journal, like the "elephant plane" theory. The journal also spawned a counter-publication debunking it called the Journal of Debunking 9/11 Conspiracy Theories.

In 2011, they ran out of "peer-reviewers" and sent out a request for someone to review two papers defending the "official" account of a plane hitting the Pentagon. The Screw Loose Change blog remarked: Great, so after 10 years of cutting edge research and truthseeking they finally figured out what the rest of us knew that Tuesday morning. And they wonder why nobody takes them seriously?

But now 9/11 conspiracy theories must be taken seriously, because, look, this research is "peer-reviewed!"
