This is the conclusion to Networks of Conspiracies Part 1. We kick it off with a discussion of the 1980’s political, economic and cultural context to help understand the war on drugs. We then dive into the conspiratorial plots of the 1990’s: Tupac, Biggie, Princess Diana and Kurt Cobain. We end with a discussion and a montage of newsroom sound bites from the most organized series of events in recent United States History: September 11th 2001. We get a little emotional about the whole affair, then ask some tough questions about the dark corners of the internet.

Concluding thought:
The world is governed by very different personages from what is imagined by those who are not behind the scenes.
Benjamin Disraeli, Coningsby, or the New Generation (1844).
