Everything is Connected: The Influence of the Internet on Conspiracy Theory, its Communities and Culture
Late last year a friend reached out to tell me they had been interviewed by a young lady doing grant funded research on the influence of the internet on conspriacy communities. After looking into her public work I took the plunge. Then earlier this year she told me the NYTimes wanted her to do an article on her project but focused on one of her interviewees to give it a more personal angle. So we did another interview and continued our discussions. The article was published online earlier this month and appeared in the physical print version of the NYTimes.
