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. […] We have Chris Shelton’s next video, and we really like the way he traces the origins of Scientology’s notorious retaliation policy of “Fair Game” back to L. Ron Hubbard’s 1959 “Manual of Justice.” As usual, Chris does an excellent job connecting the dots to illuminate a subject we thought we already knew well. And he’s right, […] We have a couple of really complex and lengthy stories working, but they take a lot of time to put together. In the meantime, we have some strange odds and ends that have been building up here in the Bunker and we thought we’d share some of them. For example, a couple of weeks ago, we […] The Underground Bunker has obtained internal financial records from Scientology’s flagship drug rehab facility in Oklahoma — known as Narconon Arrowhead — which show the toll that recent deaths, multiple lawsuits, and a drumbeat of bad press has taken on the treatment center. At its website, Scientology says that the Narconon network has 155 centers and […] On April 1, a story at Forbes.com caught us by surprise.

More than three years after Love complained about the way he was treated as a patient and employee of the Narconon Trois-Rivières facility (now closed), the […] Yesterday, Paris elected its first woman mayor, Anne Hidalgo. But as our man in France Jonny Jacobsen explains, she has a lot more interest for us here in the Underground Bunker than the fact that she’s female and from Spain… Paris has, not surprisingly, elected another socialist […] By Tony Ortega This is happening in Los Angeles, on Fountain Avenue, in an old hospital building painted blue and topped with huge, lit-up letters that read SCIENTOLOGY. And this is only weeks ago. In 2014. In the center of one of the largest cities in a country that likes to think of itself as one of […] At our request, Karen de la Carriere hurried to prepare part two of her interview series with Jillian Schlesinger, a woman who defected from Scientology’s inner “Sea Org” just a few weeks ago. (See yesterday’s remarkable Part One of the series.) In this segment, Jillian talks about the snitching culture in Scientology, and about how pregnancies […] |
