To coincide with the launch of their new book, Conspiracy Nation, we have authors and award-winning journalists Ariel Bogle & Cam Wilson in conversation with SAM HDR student and journalist Seamus Byrne. Learn what it has taken to report on the state of conspiracy theories and their communities in Australia today, and how the digital media landscape influences the nature of these groups and their beliefs.

"Through new investigations and first-hand accounts, Conspiracy Nation takes readers to the rallies, homes, courtrooms, secret chat rooms and $2000 Byron Bay luxury retreats where Australia’s conspiracy theories spread. From Port Arthur and QAnon, to the rise of ‘wellness’ influencers and ‘sovereign citizen’ gurus, to the delusions that inspired the Wieambilla murders, Bogle and Wilson show the devastating consequences of unchecked lies and radicalisation, and make a compelling case that by ignoring the looming threat of conspiratorial thinking, we put our community at risk."

Books will be available at the event.
