The latest and greatest in the scientology world. The professional Scientology Network disseminator kit…. There is ALWAYS something "new" that is the "next big thing" in scientology. This one seems particularly lame. Like something you might see in a Regraded Being cartoon, or the "secret decoder ring" in a cereal box. What is this? Who knows? But one thing for sure, it is not going to accomplish ANYTHING... BTW, for fun, Christie and I tuned in to scientologyTV for a bit the other night. What is so remarkable about it is that it is all hat and no cattle. It's well shot, lit … [Read more...]
ScientologyTV “All New Season”
Well, the "All New Season" of scientologyTV was an underwhelming flop. We have a LOT more new and original programming on SPTV. This is what is listed as the programming when I clicked on the site. "A Description of scientology" which has been aired several times a day every day since they started their "TV channel." Then a tour of the Sydney "ideal org" -- really a sort of travelogue of the city itself. Don't know if it was there previously, they have had these videos about "orgs" since day one and they all look the same other than the city they are in. Then they have 3 "shows" … [Read more...]
Reaction: The “All New Season” of ScientologyTV
Panic in the bunker -- Captain Miscavige is launching a new counter-attack! We have been expanding SPTV on YouTube and I began promoting: "Welcome to SPTV. New, entertaining and truthful -- unlike scientologyTV" I guess this ruffled Mr. Mickiewicz's feathers. So, they are now announcing a "new season" -- hah. They will add a couple of their staged propaganda videos and keep the same old crap on a loop for the other 23.5 hours a day. But the sheeple will be convinced, without even tuning in, that there is an "all new season." Simply because the powers that be say there is. It … [Read more...]
Scientology Takes Over a TV Station in Tampa
I noticed recently that scientology has taken over a small local Tampa area TV station and converted it into 24/7 ScientologyTV programming. They are still paying to have a channel on DirecTV, but have added this Tampa channel so it appears on the guide of cable customers in the Tampa area. It gives them something to tell the whales -- "look, we now have a 24 hour a day Scientology TV channel right here in Tampa -- give us more money." It is certainly not attracting new people to come in and "get on the Bridge." It is likely a knee-jerk reaction to the incessant bad news about scientology … [Read more...]
Scientology: Trying to Buy Their Way Out of Disaster
Things are really not going well in the shrinking world of scientology. First, the release of A Billion Years. The scientology response? Buying Google ads to promote their smear sites which have a flurry of new content. A blizzard of legal threats letters and delegations of lawyers and scientology officials sent across the country to "handle the flap." Then the upcoming vote in Clearwater for a development plan that David Miscavige must HATE -- it will result in two large condo towers right in front of the Ft Harrison, and a huge increase in the number of prying eyes in downtown … [Read more...]
Scientology TV Flatline
Not really "views." They probably mean clicks. Keep paying those clickfarms enough and they will get you a billion. This is part of the lies presented to the sheeple that there is "massive interest" in scientology and new people are "flooding up the Bridge." Don't try and make sense of the image they have used. Just read the text. The image is bizarre -- broken hearted planet? Planetary heart attack? Valentine's Day? Who knows? Here is some reality. ScientologyTV showing they have a total of 160 viewers! Most of those are probably staff and registrars hoping to find some raw … [Read more...]
Defending the Indefensible: Scientology TV
Of all things, STAND is complaining about The Hollywood Reporter's "biased" and "bigoted" coverage of the dismal flop that is ScientologyTV They dredge up some old stuff they have used before about the founder of THR being a communist scare merchant in the days of McCarthyism to prove that the Reporter has a "history" of bias and bigotry and that somehow makes it so today... An interesting standard that they might want to think through a little better, given their illustrious founder's checkered history and the fact that 11 leaders (including his wife) went to Federal prison... I guess … [Read more...]
What’s Up With Scientology TV?
STAND League makes a big deal out of the "ratings" of The Aftermath and A&E. Still at it more than a year after the last episode aired. This is one of their recent headlines, exhorting Disney to "pull the plug" on A&E. The hypocrites at STAND proclaim "the audience has spoken and they reject hate speech"... Actually, the audience spoke and made The Aftermath the biggest hit A&E had when we were airing -- though Live PD had higher audience numbers, The Aftermath was their "prestige" show. Emmy nominations across 4 years for 3 seasons and numerous other awards … [Read more...]
Scientology TV — What’s Missing?
Scientology is making a really big deal about their new episode featuring Chick Corea. Chick is an interesting story that has been mentioned before. He got into financial troubles when his wife was hammering his credit cards. David Miscavige had known Chick for a long time because his father, Ron, was good friends with Ron Moss, Chick's manager. (Ron Moss is father of Elisabeth Moss of Handmaid's Tale fame). Miscavige was alerted to the problem and not wanting a "flap" with one of scientology's longest term celebrities, brought in Lyman Spurlock as a CPA to look through his finances. … [Read more...]
Scientology.TV: Hit or Miss?
They are promoting "Season 4" of scientology.tv. Of course, their "seasons" consist of a few episodes of the same shows they have been airing since the launch of the "network". Meet a scientologist. Visit a city where a scientology org is. Wisdom from Ron. There are no audience figures available as the "network" has no advertisers and is not monitored by any normal tv audience monitoring system. So they claim it’s a roaring success. Like they know what the actual statistics of every ideal org is but because they keep those stats secret they simply claim they are all “expanding 10X” … [Read more...]
