As the 50th anniversary of JFK’s death approaches, a new book claims that president’s grey matter was swiped from the hospital back in 1963. Let’s review the facts.

And research just published in PLOS ONE reveals that whatever critical thinking skills the conspiracy theorists lack, they make up for in numbers, passion, and the ability to stay in their own echo chambers. It's to the point where conspiracy theorists even have a hard time (to be kind) spotting conspiracy theory parodies.
