BIGOTRY

MEDIA WATCH
Your sponsorship is, wittingly or unwittingly, assisting a blatant attempt to destroy an American religion. Threats of violence have been made against members of my church. There are real consequences and real people involved. At this time we are witnessing that inciting hatred leads to violence, and your support of this program is not benign. By so advertising you are condoning this hatemongering. Imagine if this show were about your belief or religion.
MEDIA WATCH
I’m profoundly saddened and disgusted that you have chosen to advertise on A&E during Leah Remini’s show that promotes intolerance and bigotry. In light of the recent events occurring in our country, that you would support a program that seeks to marginalize members of any religion is nothing short of hateful and dangerous. I’m both Jewish and a practicing Scientologist, and I can assure you your actions have been deeply noted.
MEDIA WATCH
Leah Remini is a hateful woman, running a campaign against her former religion that advocates religious bigotry. In today’s world, with many people taking drugs in many forms, this incites people to commit violent acts which is a threat to people and property.
MEDIA WATCH
I am writing to protest your financial support of A&E’s anti-religious hate show with Leah Remini. Your advertising dollars are fueling hate and violence toward Churches of Scientology and Scientologists.
MEDIA WATCH
Unfortunately though, you are force-feeding the thinking public a diet of your obsession and her drivel, best described as hate-speech. No one asked for it and no one needs it, least of all those who are the subject of it—Scientologists. But you keep piling it on.
MEDIA WATCH
The reason Scientology has survived and flourished, as it has for the last 67 years, notwithstanding the carping criticism of certain bigoted sources, is its workability and thus its popularity. You name-drop the word Scientology into your article because of its recognition and its popularity. Were that not true, it would be a dim distant memory in only a few people’s minds. It isn’t.
MEDIA WATCH
Scientology is a truly unique contemporary religion—the only major religion to emerge in the 20th century and flourish in the 21st. While it owes a spiritual debt to Eastern religions, it was born in the West and its religious beliefs are expressed in the technological language of the mid-20th century. Scientology adds a precise and workable technology for applying spiritual concepts to every aspect of life.
MEDIA WATCH
Leah Remini’s hatred has spawned over 500 death threats, bomb threats, and acts of violence. Perpetrators were prosecuted and jail terms were served. Her hate speech caused children to be bullied at schools, employees to be harassed at work, property to be destroyed, and people to be scared. That is her legacy. Is that to be yours?
MEDIA WATCH
I read your article on “recruiting to Scientology.” The problem from the very beginning is that your reporters lied when they walked into my Church.
MEDIA WATCH
Why not do a show that shows the millions of people who have been helped by Scientology? Or the millions of people who have found personal relief and help due to the selfless humanitarian deeds of Scientologists? Rather than a handful of people who can’t get any other job…
