Keep your Oscars, we won a Scientology 'bigot' award! February 27, 2017, Tony Ortega, Underground Bunker

---

That was some Oscars last night, eh? By now you must have seen about a thousand different jokes about poor Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway announcing the wrong Best Picture winner, and we laughed at just about every one of them.

But Moonlight's win over poor La La Land wasn't the only big awards news of the weekend. Your proprietor and a couple of dozen others were also winners in a different sort of awards category thanks to the Church of Scientology!

Well, the truth is, we've seen this before. Once again Scientology is trying to fight back against a tidal wave of negative publicity by claiming that the people exposing its abuses are all a bunch of religious "bigots."
