Investigative Project
A private sector 'counter terroro' agency employing Rita Katz and run by Steven Emerson. They wrongly claimed that the Oklahoma bombing was carried out by Islamists:
- Her [Katz] employer was the Investigative Project, run by Steven Emerson, a former reporter with an interest in terror networks. Emerson became widely known in the aftermath of the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing, when, appearing as an expert on CBS News, he theorized that the attack was the work of Islamic extremists. It turned out that Timothy McVeigh was responsible.[1]
