Jim Hoffman is a conspiracy theorist from Oakland, California, who created several web sites about the September 11, 2001 attacks that analyze and suggest alternative accounts for the events of that day. His primary website, 9-11 Research,[1] serves as an archive of documentation and alternative analyses about the attacks.[2] Hoffman has also written numerous technical essays[3] which focus on the World Trade Center controlled demolition hypothesis.
In 2006, the Editor of Popular Mechanics, James B. Meigs, described Hoffman as a "leading conspiracy theorist."[4]
