Obstructing Freedom of the Press

Jenny Good (what a name) is an OSA puppet trying to whip up people to bombard CNN with complaints before anyone has even seen the program. This is the antithesis of Scientology's most basic principle: confront. Instead of confronting reality, they deny, avoid, obscure. And as a result, the Church is imploding. The following letter from Jenny "Good" (...Lord, give me strength) is condemning a program she's never even seen. Through her doe-like ignorance she is only feeding the monster. Park Rangers always say "Don't feed the bears" because people that do tend to end up in bear bellies. A genuine Scientologist forwarded her email to me, and I sent it to my own contacts at CNN including Jenny's reference to them as "mucky-mucks."

Subject: FW: Anderson Cooper's "expose" on Scientology

Dear Friends and Family,

Anderson Cooper is doing an bullshit “expose” on our church. I have written the mucky-mucks at CNN a letter (see below). We must act on this. I urge you to write your own letter about this disgusting piece. In fact, here are the email addresses for you:

Send a copy to each of these guys. If you want to see what they are doing the show about, here’s the link. http://www.newsonnews.net/cnn/2282-cnn-s-anderson-cooper-360-explores-the-church-of-scientology-s-leadership.html

Love,
Jen

PS. Please send me a copy of your email so that I can forward it to OSA.


Dear Mr. Cooper,

I would have thought that you of all people would stay far away from tabloid journalism. I found out today that you intend to run a piece on my church that is by definition “tabloid fodder” and was shocked by it, to be honest. I have always respected your honest and forthright approach to journalism, and would never expect such titillating type gossip to come from you.

Salacious reporting has no place in a newsroom. This piece that you are doing isn’t news, it’s gossip that has been forwarded by ex-members who are a bunch of cry babies and losers. Their ethical standards did not live up the credo of our church as set forth by its founder, L. Ron Hubbard. I am a parishioner of the Church of Scientology, and was raised to be a Scientologist, as both my parents are Scientologists. I have known life both inside as a church member, and outside as a non church member. There was a period of time as a young adult that I chose to take my own path and see what other religions had to offer me. I was never persecuted, or harassed, or followed or kept. I was wished well by many very gracious and lovely people. My parents, both upstanding, long-time Scientologists, did nothing but SUPPORT my decision, and even encourage me to see what else was out there.

I had, of course, done many of the Scientology religious services so I had a good picture of what Scientology had to give me. I studied many religions, and even gave Agnosticism a try. But ultimately, I came back to Scientology. In all my searching, I had never and still haven’t found a group more open to accepting me for ME, or more supportive of my thirst for knowledge. I found that Scientology consists of a really good group of members who want to help. And that is the group of people that I wanted to be a part of.

You go ahead and feed the masses your slops, they, I’m sure will gorge on it. But know that you are not presenting the true picture of Scientology. You can’t possibly know the life that a died-in-the-wool Scientologist lives until you see one of us in action. Don’t compare the honesty and integrity of true Scientologists to lowlifes who are bitter and unhappy because they were booted out of the group.

Thank you,
Jenny Good

Witness Tampering

In a similar way David Miscavige has been directing OSA and RTC to tamper with witnesses and obstruct justice -- corraling ex-Int base staff (who might be asked to testify in court about CoS abuses and criminality) and baiting/bribing them with incentives and veiled threats to keep their mouth shut. Thus fire sales of "up to 95% off your freeloader debt if you act now," etc.

This program has been running since 2009, many people have been contacted by Marion Prawn via email and by phone. Oops, sorry I meant to say Marion Pouw. Marion has boasted openly that she's working on an RTC Mission run by COB. Here's a sample of one of Marion's emails received by a friend in California:

Dear _______, Hello, this is Marion Pouw - used to be Dendiu if u remember, right? Well, I am on a project from the Int Base touching bases with ex-Int base staff to see if they need any assistance on their cycles. We have been helping quite a few people with their bills and steps and ethics. I'd really like to hear from u as to how things are going with u and if there is anything I can do to be of assistance. Let me know when would be a good time to call u? ML, Marion

Here is a follow up email my friend received just before Christmas:

Dear _______, It’s been ages since we talked and I have had almost no comm from you. I was wondering how everything is going and I also wanted to see what we can do to get things moving regarding your status. We've been working with tons of people who are now moving and many back in good standing!! It's all very theta and I wanted to see the same thing happen with you. Are you bugged at all? You can just let me know. It would be so great to meet up. It would be great to sit down in person, get your status handled so you can move forward. ML, Marion  PS: Almost forgot, your bill will be 25% less if paid before end of year. - Marion

The last comm my friend received from District 9 was to reduce his Freeloader bill from $82,000.00 to $5,000.00 -- a 94% reduction. The freeloader bill was not signed and was written on plain blank paper (no letterhead). The Prawn also mentioned that the IJC and OSA staff were "not his terminals" anymore for his A-E steps -- despite clear LRH policy to the contrary. Any communication from him would have to go via her RTC Mission.

Wow what a difference a decade makes!

Huh Steve?

Remember that puff piece in St. Pete Times 'The Man Behind Scientology' before they grew a pair and published 'The Truth Rundown' series?

Even back then I thought if this guy deserved to be the "Pope" of Scientology then Aldrich Ames deserves the Congressional Medal of Honor!

Though I kept those thoughts to myself.

Followed by the NYT and now CNNs 360.

I suggest Prawn and Good open up a sea food restaurant.

Maybe they can hire Davy as a bus boy.

AC 360 posted a response to the OSA email campaign:

http://ac360.blogs.cnn.com/2010/03/25/scientology-a-history-of-violence/

... I have already received a number of emails from church members complaining about the series, and accusing me of attacking the church, its beliefs, its membership, and its activities.

Given that the emails are all very similar in content, I assume this is some sort of organized email campaign. None of those writing the emails have seen the series, but I appreciate hearing from all concerned viewers, and I certainly understand any church member, of any religion, being concerned about the portrayal of their beliefs.

For the record, I just want to point out that this series is not about the beliefs or activities of the Church of Scientology. It is not about the religion or the vast majority of Scientologists. This series simply has to do with what some former high ranking church officials say went on within the upper management of the church, and what happened to them when they left the church.

D9 -- That is too funny. Too true, but too funny.
We know the price of freedom.
What is the price of personal integrity?

"PS. Please send me a copy of your email so that I can forward it to OSA."

Rather oblique, but the threat is right there in front of everyone...

OK, so according to Jenny Good she is a good scientologist.

Before being told about this story, which she hasn't seen for herself, she found Anderson Cooper "to have an honest and forthright approach to journalism," but now that she's been "told" about this story he's going to air, she has contempt for him and his approach to journalism.

Jenny also doesn't know exactly which individuals Cooper interviewed or what they said, exactly, but while they,too, were certainly also "good scientologists at one time," she now has contempt for them. She doesn't know them, but she's been told about them.

She's sure the public will "gorge" on the slops of his miserable story. Sounds like contempt for the public to me. Plenty of contempt to go around!

Kinda refutes her description of scientologists in general being such wonderful people, or even able to think for themselves. Apparently, they sure can "contempt" the hell out of stuff, though.

Battery

Insanity

Terrorism

Climate of Fear - Reign of Terror

Racketeering

Shaking Down Scientologists for Cash

How Church Financials Really Work

"It's a lot more viable to chase down millionaires who will donate $10 million for a hand shake, some applause and a metal pin. It's not a matter of saving the planet and all the poor suffering people... it's 'Where's the BIG, FAT, EASY MONEY?' -- that's what we're talking about!..."  Learn More...

Blackmail

Tax Exemption by Blackmail

"Miscavige bragged that he collared the IRS Commissioner Fred Goldberg in the hallway outside his IRS office and threatened to expose him.

She attempted to escape to rejoin her husband but was caught and brought back to California, isolated and kept under guard on a remote property for over 2 years..."  Learn More...

Sadism in the SP Hall

"His most infamous sadistic moment was when he told them they were going to play 'musical chairs' and only the last person to get a chair would stay and the rest would vanish without even a chance to say good-bye to friends and family, husbands or wives. The game went on for hours as staff wept bitter tears. This delighted The Cob."  Learn More...

Abuse

Lisa McPherson's Demise

"Miscavige said he knew what was wrong and proceeded to write three paragraphs on what was to be said to this girl. The staff wondered how The Cob was even qualified to supervise auditing and even if he was, why hadn't he studied the folders first? The girl's name was Lisa McPherson and you know the rest."  Learn More...

Night of the Living Dead

"Moments later came a wail of inhuman agony unlike anything I have every heard in my lifetime, before or since. The screams were so incredibly loud. Louder than any sounds I could imagine a human could make. They filled the sky and the valley and my lonely office. 20 or 30 minutes they lasted..."  Learn More...
