Conspiracy Theory In Film, Television, And Politics
Attribution
Gordon B. ArnoldPublication Details
BookPraeger2008Description
By the 1990s, it was not unusual to find conspiracies used as explanations for a wide range of political events that would otherwise seem to have quite ordinary explanations. Conspiracy Theory in Film, Television, and Politics examines the intersection of various film and television productions in the context of unfolding political developments. The chapters follow this story chronologically, showing how screen media have both reflected and shaped the cultural milieu in which traumatic events and political controversies have been interpreted with increasing cynicism.

Brothers : The Hidden History Of The Kennedy Years
Attribution
David TalbotPublication Details
Book1st Free Press hardcover edFree Press2007Links
Description
For decades, books about John or Robert Kennedy have woven either a shimmering tale of Camelot gallantry or a tawdry story of runaway ambition and reckless personal behavior. Based on interviews with more than one hundred fifty people — including many of the Kennedys’ aging “band of brothers,” whose testimony here might be their final word on this epic political story — as well as newly released government documents, Brothers reveals the compelling, untold story of the Kennedy years, including JFK’s heroic efforts to keep the country out of a cataclysmic war and Bobby Kennedy’s secret quest to solve his beloved brother’s murder.

Paradigms Of Paranoia : The Culture Of Conspiracy In Contemporary American Fiction
Attribution
Samuel Chase CoalePublication Details
BookUniversity of Alabama Press2005Description
Though scholars have suggested that in modern times the JFK assassination initiated an industry of conspiracy (i.e., Vietnam and the Pentagon Papers, Area 51, Iran-Contra Affair), Samuel Chase Coale reminds us in this book that conspiracy is foundational in American culture–from the apocalyptic Biblical narratives in early Calvinist households to the fear of Mormon, Catholic, Jewish, and immigrant populations in the 19th century.

A Culture Of Conspiracy : Apocalyptic Visions In Contemporary America
Attribution
Michael BarkunPublication Details
BookUniversity of California Press2003Links
Description
Unraveling the extraordinary genealogies and permutations of these increasingly widespread ideas, Barkun shows how this web of urban legends has spread among subcultures on the Internet and through mass media, how a new style of conspiracy thinking has recently arisen, and how this phenomenon relates to larger changes in American culture. Looking closely at the manifestions of these ideas in a wide range of literature and source material from religious and political literature, to New Age and UFO publications, to popular culture phenomena such as The X-Files, and to websites, radio programs, and more, Barkun finds that America is in the throes of an unrivaled period of millennarian activity.
