We had a laugh when Scientology shocked many people in Los Angeles by purchasing the historic studios that had long housed the local public television station KCET. The thought of Scientology operating its own television network led us two years ago to speculate about the fabulous shows the wacky group could put together. But since […] We’ve been leaked some exclusive footage of David Miscavige speaking at the opening this weekend of a new “Ideal Org” in Sydney. The source who provided us the footage estimated the crowd size at 1,500 — and that included people who had arrived from Taiwan, New Zealand, and across Australia. That’s a pretty anemic turnout for such […] We just heard from longtime Scientology critic Mark Bunker, who has just been summarily ejected from the Flag Down 2014 conference in Clearwater by organizer Laura Flynn. “I just got kicked out and so did Tom Smith,” Bunker told us by […] If you’ve been hanging out with us for a while, you know that we bounce around from big stories with wide appeal to some things that only the truly obsessive will care about.

The South African Anatomy Congress is described this way by […] Last month we told you about Jillian Schlesinger, a young woman who escaped from Scientology’s “Sea Organization” and then, just weeks later, began telling her story for publication. We wondered if that short period between her dash for freedom and speaking out might be a sign of Scientology’s deepening crisis that is driving so many […] On this special occasion, we’ll allow ourselves a little levity and congratulate Scientology leader David Miscavige on his 54th birthday with a humorous photo-illustration done by our old friend Jeffrey Augustine.
