Canadian Association of Sexual Assault Centres Media Profile in Sources Resource Type: Organization Conspiracy Theories and Paranoia: Note from a Mind-Control Conference Resource Type: Article Published: 1996 The debate over "recovered" and "false" memories continues to be one of the most contentious issues in the field of psychology today.

Oscar Hangover Special: Why "Spotlight" Is a Terrible Film Resource Type: Article Published: 2016 I am astonished (though I suppose I shouldn't be) that, across the past few months, ever since Spotlight hit theatres, otherwise serious left-of-centre people have peppered their party conversation with effusions that the film reflects a heroic journalism, the kind we all need more of. I was in Boston in the Spring of 2002 reporting on the priest scandal, and because I know some of what is untrue, I don't believe the personal injury lawyers or the Boston Globe's "Spotlight" team or the Catholic "faithful" who became harpies outside Boston churches, carrying signs with images of Satan. Recovered Memories Cross the Oceans Psychic Vibrations Resource Type: Article Published: 1995 The American practice of "recovering memories" of all manner of unspeakable abuse has leaped the Atlantic, and the Pacific as well.
