THE DEBUNKER DEBUNKED

MSI,

Excellent job of slicing apart the deception-fest that Brian Lamb was trying to perpetrate with Michael Barkun on C-SPAN's Washington Journal.

See: c-span.org,

Michael Barkun, Author of "A Culture of Conspiracy," discusses conspiracy theories.
3/12/2004: WASHINGTON, DC: 1 hr.

Barkun was everything you say he was. He's a con man working the academic circuit. Con as in confidence man, not conspiracy nut. <gg>

His inability to intelligently discuss Skull & Bones, for one example, was breathtaking. I didn't realize a "conspiracy theory debunker" could be so deliberately ill-informed about one of today's hottest topics.

Cheerio!
