Popeyes: Another Advertiser Just Pulled From A&E Shows. You Should Too.

Are you aware that another A&E advertiser, Georgia-Pacific, recently chose to sever its association with the show “Leah Remini: Scientology and the Aftermath?” They stated they are adding that show to their “do not air” list.

Dear Sir,

I am writing as I am intensely dismayed that A&E still intends to run a third season of Leah Remini’s out-and-out hate and anti-religion show.

Are you aware that another anti-religion series with Elizabeth Vargas was cancelled due to poor performance? This type of programming is very unpopular. Why?

Because our nation was founded on the very fundamental principle of freedom of religion.

These shows are blatant attempts to spew lies and slanted propaganda. I know this because I am a Scientologist of over 40 years. I have a very keen bird’s-eye view of the lies disseminated about my religion in Remini’s show. I also speak for any other religion that finds itself in the bigoted crosshairs of A&E programming.

When you sponsor these shows, you foster and forward hate.

When you choose to not advertise on these shows, you stand up for all Americans who enjoy the right to their own religion, as promised by our Constitution.

Please do the right thing. Go high and stop sponsoring hate.
