[Danny Masterson’s preliminary hearing in May was a highlight of another messed up year]
A very happy winter solstice to our northern hemisphere readers, and to our antipodean friends, enjoy your summer! Once again it’s time to take stock of the year just past with our annual review, and wow, is this year finishing strong or […]
Of course we’re happy to see the last of 2020, a year that none of us will forget. But along with the bad, there has been some […]
There have been many startling disclosures about what actually happens inside Scientology over the years. But one of the results of several former top Sea Org officials coming forward around the year 2009 — people like Mike Rinder, Marc and Claire Headley, and Tom Devocht, for example — was the greater appreciation we all gained […]
