Episode 12: Paulette Cooper, Scientology's longtime nemesis, on her new memoir
Movie needed of Paulette's life, truly, truly.
Gosh Paulette speaks so clearly, she communicates so well, and Tony, you too communicate so clearly, explain things so well.
Really, a movie, but the real Paulette, hearing her speak and explain, is better than a movie ever could be.
BEST interview and Paulette is so wonderful to hear explain, such incredible explaining.
I read Paulette's "Secrets of Scientology" years after I got out, and was blown away. I'd read it once on the internet, it's on Prof Dave Touretzky's site "Secret Library of Scientology" when I first quit.
I knew of the book inside the Sea Org, in the OSA computer servers which I was nightly "backing up" the OSA servers, is a copy of the text, never read it, but knew that ex Guardian's Office people in Sea Org were proud to be working doing Hubbard's orders to destroy her. I briefly heard some of the black PR on her, and I thought, "so what" that the supposed bad stuff on her did not at all match up with her being bad, she still was totally good as a journalist, nothing even inside when I was in, sounded like she was evil, etc.
Anyways when I read it the second time, I got a copy from the library in Pittsburgh, they still had a copy and I read the hardback from the library.
Now I'm buying a new paperback, from the internet, just for posterity.
Paulette is so wonderful to listen to, she's the best, and Tony is similar, so clear in explaining things.
She's a wonder. A true wonder of humanity.
