Conspiracy Theory

[JB Books]

I was watching Jesse Ventura's show tonight about Tesla's death ray. He was interviewing people who claimed the government was trying to kill them with invisible rays. A former governor of a large state hosting a show about conspiracy theories.

It occurred to me that when I was a kid (70s and 80s), no one would have ever done such a show. Those people were marginalized, not glorified. Much like hard core Preppers.

Is this a good thing or bad thing?

Jesse Ventura? Really?

It is kinda good kinda bad. It seems like TV is showing the dumbest of each group. But its good because it gets people thinking and puts light on the issue...but not always in a good way.

Yes. It's called Conspiracy Theory with Jesse Ventura. Wed night at 9pm. I found it because Southpark was a rerun.

I don't watch cartoons.
In fact I don't watch TV. The only thing important on TV is weather, but I can do just as well with the smartphone, or scanner, monitoring the storm chasers.

I've watched those. I think Jesse may be kind of out there, but, as far as I'm concerned he earned it.

When I was a kid Lucy and Desi had to have twin beds on tv.
