MEDIA WATCH
This letter is to express my disgust at the bigoted, snark-laden portrayal of the Church of Scientology in Rosie DiManno’s column published yesterday on the website of the Toronto Star and affiliated publications.
MEDIA WATCH
Leah Remini’s only interest is in creating religious hatred to swell her own pockets. She’s a professional bigot on A&E’s payroll, producing a vindictive, one-sided series that never for a moment sought balance. A&E should be ashamed for further fanning the flames of religious intolerance and undermining one of our great freedoms we enjoy.
MEDIA WATCH
The snide, snobby, condescending and bigoted view of one far too satisfied with her own ignorance is grossly out of place in today’s world where it is shameful to fan hatred toward members of any religion.
MEDIA WATCH
In today’s world of media-incited religious hatred, no one faith should be used as a prop to attack another. The only product of your posting is to spread bigotry against Scientology. And if the press popularizes bigotry against one faith, whose faith is next?
MEDIA WATCH
Wright’s book presented an inaccurate and misleading picture of Scientology, based on myths, urban legends and deliberate distortions while perpetuating anti-religious bigotry against the Scientology religion.
MEDIA WATCH
The Scientology religion is for the individual. It is not dependent on someone or something else. Membership is not in any way hinged upon celebrity.
MEDIA WATCH
The web page of the United States Department of Justice dealing with religious freedom doesn't say “Protecting the Religious Freedom of All, Except Scientology.” It states, “Protecting the Religious Freedom of All.” It is all-inclusive because that is the overriding all-embracing principle at the heart of our democracy.
MEDIA WATCH
As your aim is to “open a dialogue between millennials and key decision makers” it is incumbent on you to provide your reading public with the facts and not one man’s bigoted and corrupt view of religions and the world at large.
MEDIA WATCH
Gratuitous, inflammatory comments like the ones you published in your closing paragraph do nothing more than show arrogance and disdain toward people of faith.
MEDIA WATCH
Beware of bitter individuals, generally they are attempting to hide their acts and their lies by creating lies about others.
