Dr. Beter

Episode Notes The Rockefeller family was a frequent target of conspiracy theory in the United States. One of their detractors was Peter Beter, a conspiracy theorist whose frequently outlandish conspiracy theories also targeted the Federal Reserve system and the Soviet Union. He spread his message through recorded messages distributed on cassette tape to subscribers, released monthly from 1975 to 1982. Beter claimed that the Soviets had planted short range nuclear missiles just off the coast of the United States and that the US and USSR had fought an orbital conflict with space-based weapons which he called the “Battle of the Harvest Moon.” It was, however, Beter’s tales of assassinated and replaced political figures that remain his most outlandish legacy.
