<\/div>\nSALT LAKE CITY \u2014 Call us curious, call us skeptics, call us cynics. In the end, maybe Utahns are just super interested in the truth or, perhaps, a<\/i> truth.<\/p>\n
That’s probably why Utah was just named one of the most conspiracy-obsessed states in the entire country. (If you can believe it<\/i>.)<\/p>\n
With interest in conspiracy theories paralleling the rise of the internet, Yardbarker<\/b><\/a> set out to see which states were more obsessed than others.<\/p>\n The study found that Utah ranked 10th overall in the U.S. (Hmmmm… likely story<\/i>.)<\/p>\n Yardbarker looked at how many searches came from each state in connection to eight popular American conspiracy theories such as Bigfoot, the moon landing and Flat Earth.<\/p>\n In all, Utah had 2,432 conspiracy searches per 100,000 residents, still far below neighbors in Nevada and Wyoming. (Do they know something we don’t?<\/i>)<\/p>\n The most searched conspiracy theory in Utah was Bohemian Grove, followed by Area 51 and, yes, Bigfoot.<\/p>\n Most searched conspiracy theories in Utah<\/u><\/b>:<\/p>\n Call us curious, call us skeptics, call us cynics. In the end, maybe Utahns are just looking for the truth or a truth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":387590,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"Default","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[228,237],"na-reason":[],"post-attribute":[5145,5322],"rss-search-query":[5336],"fix":[],"internal_tag":[],"news_source":[3943],"class_list":["post-387589","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-conspiracy","tag-chemtrails","tag-flat-earth","post-attribute-admin-saved-categories","post-attribute-rss-retriever","rss-search-query-moon-landing-conspiracy","news_source-fox13now"],"acf":{"acf_admin_rating":"","acf_processed_datetime":"2024-12-12
