These theories, promoted by officials, academics, central propaganda outlets

and on social media, have gained wider currency in China.

They risk further muddying inquiries into the source of the virus

and aggravating already frayed relations between the world’s top two powers

which most average Chinese will not be able to see behind,”

“A lot of it is anticipating and trying fend off, pre-emptively,

this potential American study by the intelligence community.”

Spike Lee is re-editing 9/11 documentary
that features conspiracy theorists

... includes interviews with scientists who refute the conspiracy claims,

but critics say Lee gave the conspiracists undeserved air time.
