The (far) right already has its own, often nonsensical, version of truth, and everything else flows from that. When they encounter something that is contrary to their truth, they reject or avoid it, requiring an alternative that is consistent. Fox News is the obvious example but it naturally just keeps on spreading. It's not by accident that conservative talk shows mostly sell miracle cures in their advertising.
