Mark Shouldice (born December 21, 1977), known professionally as Mark Dice,[1] is an American activist and media critic[3][4][5], and author known for his conspiracy theories about secret societies such as The Bilderberg Group, Behemian Grove events and the Illuminati control of the world.[6][7][8] Based in San Diego, California, Dice also operates a YouTube channel with over 960,000 subscribers as of March 21, 2017.[9]
Career
In 2005 Dice wrote The Resistance Manifesto, a book on Illuminati and New World Order conspiracy theories, and quickly gained popularity amongst the Internet conspiracy community.[10][11][12]
In May 2009 he published The Illuminati: Facts & Fiction discussing the possibility of an Illuminati secret society.[13]
In 2010, he shipped a box of garbage to Glenn Beck at the Fox News Channel for what he considered disrespect of the 9/11 truth movement.[14] More recently, Dice produced a series of YouTube videos where he attempts to get people in public places to sign satirical petitions, such as repealing the Bill of Rights "for Obama" and granting Obama immunity for any and all crimes he commits while in office.[15] The videos have been discussed on Fox & Friends and by The Washington Times.[16][17]
In 2010 The History Channel series Decoded featured Dice who met with the show's investigators to discuss the Illuminati secret society.[18] Mark Dice is the guest for the Statue of Liberty episode, originally airing on December 16, 2010 at 10/9c. He was in the pilot episode of Culture Shock with Mötley Crüe's Tommy Lee,[19] an investigative travel show, but the series was not picked up.[20] He is also featured in Secret Societies of Hollywood on E!,[21] Conspiracy Theory with Jesse Ventura on TruTV,[22] America Declassified on the Travel Channel,[citation needed] Ancient Aliens, and America's Book of Secrets.[citation needed]
Dice argues that organizations such as the Bilderberg Group, Skull and Bones, and Bohemian Grove are actually New World Order secret societies which direct human affairs and global politics, particularly those of the United States.
New York Magazine joked in 2013 that actor River Phoenix had not really died, but was "said to be living" as Mark Dice.[23] In 2015, the Los Angeles Times derided Dice for his theory that Katy Perry was Satanic, and his theory that the Super Bowl halftime shows were elaborate Illuminati rituals.[24]
Michael Reagan controversy
In June 2008, Dice launched a campaign urging people to send letters and DVDs to troops stationed in Iraq, which supported the theory that the September 11 attacks in 2001 were an "inside job".[25] "People want the facts. The Marines are hungry for the truth—what got them there [in Iraq], why are they risking their lives—and we’re going to help them understand that," he told Fox News. "Operation Inform the Soldiers," as Dice has called it, prompted syndicated talk show host Michael Reagan (son of former President Ronald Reagan) to comment that Dice should be found and killed for treason. Reagan said on June 10, 2008: "How about you take Mark Dice out and put him in the middle of a firing range. Tie him to a post, don't blindfold him, let it rip and have some fun with Mark Dice." Reagan added that he would pay for the bullets.[26]
Dice launched an unsuccessful campaign attempting to have Reagan punished by his syndicator or the Federal Communications Commission. The progressive activist group Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting has since asked Reagan's syndicator (Radio America) to explain whether it permits "its hosts to call for murder on the air."[27]

Friday's premiere of the suspense thriller Angels & Demons, based on Dan Brown's book of the same name, may spark interest in a secret society central to the movie's plot. So says Mark Dice of San Diego, author of the new book Illuminati: Facts and Fiction. Dice, 31, said historians and scholars agree that the Illuminati organization was created in Bavaria, Germany, in the late 1700s, but there continues to be a debate about whether the group completely disbanded when its sinister plans were discovered by authorities, and its members were exposed more than 200 years ago. Here, Dice discusses his book on the Illuminati, a group featured prominently in Angels and Demons.
