					<description><![CDATA[L. Ron Hubbard, founder of scientology and sole source of valid information on earth, declared the media to be &#8220;Merchants of Chaos&#8221; and proclaimed in his &#8220;Press Policies&#8221; directive: &#8220;The reporter who comes to you, all smiles and withholds, &#8216;wanting a story,&#8217; has an AMA instigated release in his pocket.

					<description><![CDATA[Watch Catherine Bell interview This is the party line fed to celebrities (and anyone else) to use as a cop out when asked about scientology. “It’s misunderstood, there’s so much false information out there. Read a book and then make a decision for yourself.” It’s a pretty effective deflection and tends to end any inquiries [&#8230;]]]></description>

It is a letter sent in the name of Karin Pouw to ABC 20/20 after they had been provided a series of questions before an interview with Leah Remini by Dan Harris aired. The interview in fact aired on Oct [&#8230;]]]></description>

Rich, along with Pauletter Cooper (who will feature in an upcoming episode) is a poster child for scientology Fair Game against journalists. He is an award-winning investigative journalist who first wrote about scientology in 1986 for [&#8230;]]]></description>

Susie has interviewed me before and it&#8217;s always enjoyable and she asks the best questions. She may not look like the stereotypical Religious Studies PhD, but she is one smart cookie. She is perhaps more well-known for her MTV reality [&#8230;]]]></description>
