Anderson Cooper is launching a weeklong series about Scientology Monday, covering many of the allegations against the controversial religion already reported by RadarOnline.com.

Anderson Cooper 360, the CNN anchor’s nightly news show, is looking at Scientology’s “history of violence,” especially allegations that leader – and Tom Cruise best friend – David Miscavige has personally physically abused his followers.

Tom Cruise Is One Of Scientology’s Most Devoted Members

Scientology spokesman Tommy Davis, son of actress Anne Archer, is interviewed by Cooper and claims that while there has been violence committed against members in the elite Sea Organization, the guilty offenders are those very people now making allegations against Miscavige.

The violence has been going on for many years, started by Hubbard and has escalated ever since. People are finally speaking up in droves, the only way to combat the harassment that comes with criticising the church.

While I have respect for AC adn his work, he's too close to the Mighty Opes (Oprah) camp, and therefore team Tom Cruise and John Travolta etc. so I doubt it will be has hard hitting as it could or should be. Scientologisty are VERY powerful...chills.

Scientology is a cult. I'm amazed he fell for it. Don't you find it a little suspicious that so many celebs are scientologists? It's a celeb club cult. They even have a celeb center. You don't need a "church" telling you how to think.
