False "Scientology bulletins" were run off and distributed. Quotes never spoken were printed. But nobody ever asked the head of the movement anything and tore up and didn't print every press handout that was issued.
The tide has turned now. There was nothing wrong in the first place.
The false reports issued about Scientology are a grim example of how a special privilege group like psychiatry can use mass news media and the Establishment to try to eradicate competitors.
Scientologists are neither violent nor political. They are a technical church group, working successfully in the field of mental health.
The false reports were so false that at last the public refused to believe them. Even the better reporters began to turn against furthering the attack anymore. It was just too corny.
Groups less sane and less stable than the Scientologists, minorities who are not able to handle such situations calmly as the Scientologists have, begin to stockpile weapons and throw stones and have a go at the police. Nobody will listen. They are maligned in Establishment and press. And they can only think in terms of violence.
