A book of what?
The title of the program is "America's Book of Secrets: Special Edition". The complete narrator's statement is "There are those that believe in the existence of a book, a book that contains the most highly guarded secrets of the United States of America. A book whose very existence is known to only a select few". You can probably see where I got the the conspiracy theorists part. The "book of secrets" is History Channel nonsense, but some of the things referenced in the program could be real.
I guess you'd need to define "secret" because what are they referring to...Bigfoot, Jimmy Hoffa, why is Lindsey Graham not married?
If they're referring to the US Gov't, then, yes, I'd be surprised if America didn't safeguard many tomes of secrets. I've read newly-elected presidents succumb to Canities Subita after being briefed on said secrets. I was in the military, stationed overseas, worked on the flightline and clearly briefed on what'd happen to me if our base was overtaken. It's a farfetched scenario but a scenario nonetheless; however, I knew secrets and those secrets had to remain secrets.
The funny thing about secrets is only trusted people know secrets. If somebody reveals a secret, you can't trust them. If you can't trust them, it's probably not a secret.
The "Big Brother is Watching" episode isn't about Bigfoot, Jimmy Hoffa or any of those kinds of secrets. It's about technology tools used by our government to safeguard American citizens from terrorist attacks. For example, Osama Bin Laden was supposedly identified via facial recognition software from a satellite.
Overhead facial recognition from space? Yet we can't find a Malaysian aircraft or hordes of white supremacists terrorizing our streets? If this technology exists, I'd think you'd see more gov't employees wearing big, floppy hats...veils...or buckets.
Ripley's Believe It or Not! was popular in its day because it exploited our natural curiosity and resistance to reason. It's just entertainment.
