Hmmm???...articles discussing conspiracy theories are in fact a conspiracy in themselves...a good one, that. Reminds me of all those claims that it was the CIA who thought up the term "conspiracy theory" to discredit those who challenged the Warren Commission. https://www.metabunk.org/threads/debunked-the-cia-invented-the-term-conspiracy-theory-in-1967-with-memo-1035-960.960/ Now you think the German scholar interview is perhaps following a DNC directive because a left-leaning news outlet shared his research. And, of course, Fox, OANN and Newsmax never ever share in right-wing taking points. But historically when it comes to media manipulation of the news it has been the left-wing who exposed it. Upton Sinclair's 'Brass Check', John Keracher's 'The Head-Fixing Industry' to modern times with Chomsky and MediaLens website.
