[Miss New York Rahmeka Cox, helping to peddle Hubbardism]You might remember that we got some help last month from a health journalist who elicited an interesting reaction from the organization that runs Miss New York pageants, which in turn feed the Miss America contest. Continue reading Pageant official: Miss New Yorks are clueless about Scientology and we’re OK with that
