Jesse Walker On "The United States Of Paranoia"

Views: 821
"Conspiracy theories are not just a colorful byway, they are at America's core," explains Jesse Walker, Reason Magazine books editor and author of The United States of Paranoia: A Conspiracy Theory. Walker discussed his book as well as America's long fascination with conspiracies during a presentation at this year's Freedom Fest.

Held each July in Las Vegas, Freedom Fest is attended by around 2,000 limited-government enthusiasts and libertarians. ReasonTV spoke with over two dozen speakers and attendees and will be releasing interviews over the coming weeks.

Approx. 20 minutes.

Produced by Sharif Matar. Shot by Paul Detrick and Alex Manning.
