What Do Conspiracy Theorists Do When Proved Wrong? Double Down or Move On.

A podcaster said President Joe Biden was “dying or possibly already dead.” A host on Newsmax requested “proof of life.” And a former Republican member of Congress simply asked: “Anyone else think Biden is dead?”

When Biden appeared again late last month after a brief isolation from COVID-19 — still very much alive — many didn’t backtrack or correct their false implications.

NewsGuard, a company that monitors online misinformation, identified 19 prominent accounts on the social platform X that in July shared the idea that Biden was potentially dead or close to death. The New York Times followed those accounts to see how they handled news that Biden was alive and found that most ignored it or stoked more conspiracy theories. Only a few admitted they had gotten it wrong.
