tinformation

(noun) (1) evidence selected and distorted tendentiously to confuse, mislead, and deceive;
(2) the process of becoming a member of the tinfoil-hat crowd.

Indeed, tinformation may be thought of as a portmanteau of "tinfoil" and "information."
Loose Change is a prime example of tinformation about 9/11.
