A long time ago (or so it seems) I entered into the field of psychotherapy.

A long time ago (or so it seems) I entered into the field of psychotherapy.
I didn’t know it until I began studying thinking in earnest.
Two new reports this past week — each one provide a vivid demonstration that News Media bias is full alive and thriving.
Now make-overs are common these days.
Most people do not “think.”
