 Conspiracy theory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The term "conspiracy theory" is used by scholars and in popular culture to identify a type of folklore similar to an urban legend, having certain regular features, especially an explanatory narrative which is constructed with certain naive methodological flaws.
The term conspiracy theory is itself the object of a type of conspiracy theory, which argues that those using the term are manipulating their audience to disregard the topic under discussion, either in a deliberate attempt to conceal the truth, or as dupes of more deliberate conspirators.
Conspiracies are a popular theme in several genres of fiction, notably thrillers and science fiction, primarily due to their dramatic potential: recasting complex or meaningless historical events into relatively simple morality plays, in which bad people are the cause of bad events, and good people face the relatively simple task of identifying and defeating them.

 Talk:Nick Berg conspiracy theories - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Saying that there were a group of men conspiring to kill Berg is not a conspiracy theory under the guidelines of the wikipedia article by that name.
In order to lend credence to this theory the FBI and the State Department have given conflicting statements as to whether or not Nick Berg had been in US custody in Iraq, which obviously proves angry Muslims beheaded Nick Berg and that he is not alive, with a different identity, acting as a Mossad spy.
Conspiracy theories, furthermore, involve a conspiracy, and the aforementioned theory would thus not fit into the category unless the Bush administration was aware of what the guards did and was trying to hide it (in this theoretical case).
