Money for Hate TV Programming Is Not an Investment in the Future
Scientology has been found by courts over and over again as a bonafide religion just like Judaism and Christianity. Yet I would sincerely doubt you would sponsor a show that spread hate and bigotry about these religions in the way that is being done against Scientology.

Dear Mr. Legere:
As a Scientologist for over 20 years, I am very concerned and disappointed about your support and backing of the A&E Aftermath show.
Scientology has been found by courts over and over again as a bonafide religion just like Judaism and Christianity. Yet I would sincerely doubt you would sponsor a show that spread hate and bigotry about these religions in the way that is being done against Scientology.
Worse yet, there is documented proof that this A&E show has spawned many threats of violence against Scientologists and our Churches. How is this acceptable and why would you want to support and be associated with something like this?
Please reconsider your decisions and realize that you are not making a financial investment in a TV show or entertainment but rather are helping to finance and support an orchestrated campaign of religious bigotry and hatred.
