"The Ebola Conspiracy Theories"
Professor Michael Barkun was quoted in a recent New York Times article
on conspiracy theories about the ebola outbreak. In the article, Barkun
says "Diseases in particular are suited to conspiracy because they are
invisible and invisibly transmitted. Our senses can’t tell us exactly
how the danger spreads. The theory has an answer for what mystifies and
frightens.” 10/20/14
