To Bill O'Reilly: Fox News

Greta Van Susteren had the head of a pernicious Scientology front group on her show last night promoting Scientology's rabid anti-psychiatry agenda. He is Bruce Wiseman and his group is the CCHR or Citizens Commission on Human Rights.

Sounds like a legitimate group, right? Wrong, the CCHR is a devious group that sneaks around the country using tax-exempt funds to demean and discredit the psychiatric profession and the pharmaceutical companies.

Why is Scientology so rabid about attacking psychiatry? L. Ron Hubbard, the wacko founder of Scientology decreed that Psychiatry was an 'evil enemy of mankind' and that Scientology would eradicate Psychiatry and take over the field of mental health. Yes, this is laughable but at the same time this is doing a lot of damage. Leslie Stahl had Dr. Carl Bell on 60 MInutes last week.

Dr. Bell is an Afro-American psychiatrist in Chicago who is greatly concerned over the vicious anti-psychiatry propaganda that the CCHR is distributing in his area of Chicago. This is graphic literature proclaiming that "Psychiatry Causes Racism". Dr, Bell stated on 60 Minutes that this hatefilled propaganda prevents people who really need help from seeking help.

Bill, please have Fox News look into this. They are probably not aware of what is afoot here.

I am a former member of Scientology and a former staff member of the Cult Awareness Network (CAN). I have a lot of information on this and I am at your service. telephone 847-205-1134

The following announcement ( below) is being passed among members of the Scientology cult. It is truly shameful that Fox News via Douglas Kennedy and Greta Van Susteren would allow a Church of Scientology stooge on its program.

The CCHR or Citizens Commission on Human Rights is a Scientology front group that uses tax-exempt funds to finance insidious and covert operations designed to malign and discredit the Psychiatric profession and the Pharmaceutical companies. The CCHR distributes rabid literature full of lies and distortions about psychiatry and pharmaceutical medications. Greta Van Susteren had Bruse Wiseman, the head of the CCHR on her show promoting their dangerous lies. Of course, she was conveniently not there. Van Susteren is a Scientologist and a major contributor to Scientology's secret 'War Chest.' The War Chest is money Scientology uses to finance these hatefilled, vicious front groups. Greta goes by the name, Greta Coale within Scientology. There are many of us out here who have been defrauded, abused and harassed by the Scientology cult and we will not stand by and let them get away with their subversive operations. We ask you to broadcast an apology and and a disclaimer.
