You don't have to go undercover to find conspiracy nuts. They're only too willing to share their views on the net and even in commercial broadcasts. Fox News is happy to peddle various conspiracy theories, as is the GOP. Both are happy to state as fact that Clinton sacrificed Americans in the Benghazi Consulate attack, that the Clintons murdered Vince Foster or that Obama is a foreign Muslim who forged his birth certificate.
But there are right-wing shock jocks who take it to a whole other level. Alex Jones is way out there and propogates more conspiracy theories than anyone else, unifying them by reference to the New World Order.
Has anyone watched Fox News? It's amazing how smoothly conspiracy theories and baseless assertions are stated as indisputable fact and they just form the baseline for further discussions. I can imagine it is effective brainwashing for ignorant or uncritical viewers.
