'Anonymous' Protest Church of Scientology at CNN Building
For background and a photo essay on this protest, see our story from yesterday.
"There was NO old media, anywhere, that I saw. And we spent an hour in front of the damned CNN building. Creepy," said Teague Chrystie (guy in pink hair in video), one of the hosts of the above LA based podcast called Geekza. "We don't represent Anonymous or Scientology, we're just some industry cats of various niches who dig activism," he emphasized.
World wide protests and as of this hour (2:47 a.m.), CNN's last news report containing the word "scientology" was January 17th and last video was on Jaunary 25th according to search results of their webpage.
