This is a small portion of the hit peice:

'Beliefs in conspiracy theories have roots in a number of social and political factors. For example, those who have stumbled upon misfortune are more likely to endorse conspiracy theories as a means of explaining their undesirable lot in life. Partisans - Democrats and Republicans alike - endorse conspiracy theories that malign the other party, or that have been championed by their own partisan and ideological leaders in the government and the media. The same goes for the devoutly religious: The altar can function as a bully pulpit for religious leaders to guide their parishioners toward misinformation and conspiracy theories.'
