My favourite conspiracy theory is that the US government is behind most conspiracy theories.

Look into Gene Pope, the guy who bought up the National Enquirer and Weekly World News and turned them into conspiracy fodder.

Would you expect that he had graduated MIT in only three years?

How about that his job right before buying the Enquirer was in the CIA's psyops division?
