Scientology’s Viral Campaign

May 23rd, 2007 by Edward Dron

This month the Church of Scientology posted a video of reporter Alan Johnston yelling at a Scientology member. The church has posted this video on YouTube because they want people to add their name to a BBC petition to fire the reporter. Last I checked, the video had over 750,000 views.

In fairness, here is a video where the Panorama Editor defends BBC journalist’s outburst against Tommy Davis from Scientology. For a balanced view, it’s definitely worth a look.

    For UK citizens, there are two petitions on-line:

    1) We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Refuse any application submitted by the ‘Church’ of Scientology for recognition as a Religious Organisation.
