Will Smith-Backed School That Used Scientology Materials Closes Its Doors

Acting on a tip from a parent that was posted over at WhyWeProtest.net, we contacted a former teacher at New Village Leadership Academy to ask if the school in Calabasas, California has shut its doors permanently.

He said that it has, and forwarded us to a Facebook message that was posted on June 28 by Eva […]

Scientology Grudge Match: Tommy Davis Gets Called Out By Mike Rinder

Back in 2007, when John Sweeney of the BBC (right) came to Los Angeles to film an episode of Panorama entitled “Scientology and Me,” he was treated rather roughly by the church’s two top media handlers, Tommy Davis (left) and a gaunt-looking Mike Rinder, who had just been plucked out of “The Hole” for assignment […]

VIDEO: Scientology Told Google’s Sergey Brin It Wanted Only “Good” Search Results

Geir Isene reached Scientology’s heights — Operating Thetan Level Eight — but the Norwegian has left the church and is now providing startling insights about his time in the organization.

Recently, he came to the United States, and has made a series of videos with former church member Karen de la Carriere. In the first video, […]

LEAK: Scientology’s Script For Softening Up A Crowd

Fellow Scientology Watchers, we’re really looking forward to your thoughts about today’s document leak.

We want to thank the tipster who forwarded this item. It’s a script for introducing the latest rah-rah videos that Scientology leader David Miscavige is having sent around to local “orgs” in the hopes that church members already exhausted with years of […]

What Scientologists at War Left Out: Some Annotations on Channel 4’s Documentary

Before Scientologists at War aired last night on Channel 4, the documentary’s director, Joe Martin, told us he was looking forward to our review of the film. But we told him that since we had helped with the making of the movie and appeared in it, “reviewing” it would be bad form.

Instead, we’re fortunate that […]

SCIENTOLOGISTS AT WAR, the Channel 4 Documentary

As we predicted, a version of Channel 4’s documentary, “Scientologists at War,” has appeared on the Internet. We don’t know who’s responsible for it, but we’re embedding it here so our readers not in the UK can get a look at it.

We also asked some ex-Scientologists in the UK to give us their impressions of […]

The Fair-Gaming of ESMB’s Michelle “Emma” Sterling

Karen de la Carriere has a new video, and this one is about the woman behind the Ex-Scientologist Message Board, Melbourne’s Michelle Sterling.

Otherwise known by her nom de guerre, “Emma,” Michelle started up ESMB in 2007, and it’s still a hive of activity for people who have left the church.

But in November 2010, Sterling […]

Scientology Goes After Critics With Legal Threat Letters Following Strange Infiltration

Yuliya Keaton, from her Facebook account

Scientology Watching is never dull, particularly when things get really weird, as they did this past week.

Details are still sketchy, but apparently, in April a Florida woman named Yuliya Keaton who had once served in Scientology’s elite Sea Organization rejoined the group at its Los Angeles headquarters, but […]

Cheering Up Will Smith, and A Survey For You SPs!

You’ve probably heard by now about the brilliant Scientology parody “Cheer Up Will Smith.” Pulled off by (we’d guess) some Times Square stand-up comedians (the place is lousy with ’em), the parody consists of a website, numerous videos, and even some in-real-life fliers posted in Times Square itself.

The stunt appeared in the wake of Will […]
