How to Spot a Conspiracy Theory and Why It Matters

Inflamed by recent American presidential elections, environmental issues and the pandemic, conspiracy theories cover everything from “flat Earth” beliefs to why COVID vaccines have been created.

But what exactly is a conspiracy theory? Why does anyone find them credible? Is it even possible now to know the truth in our “fake news” world?

For the past decade, founder of Hope 103.2’s Open House Sheridan Voysey has lived in the UK and became internationally known as a broadcaster, social commentator, author and public speaker.
