You have a good relationship with Nicole? I don’t think so, Tom. You have the kids, you’ve turned them into scientology and yet, for some reason, you are the one finding it difficult to talk about their relationship with their mother. Why is that? “We share custody, the children see them WHENEVER”, they forgot to coach you on that bit, didn’t they?

This statement by Oprah is completely false, and I am amazed at the lack of research on this. The man who produced this video, Mark Headley, has himself stated that the version seen on youtube was unedited! If Oprah is not aware of this, I would hope she would correct this statement as soon as possible. The reason that so many people found this video strange is because it is a strange video, not because it was edited to appear that way.

Mark Headley is a former Scientologist and Executive Producer of many of the videos produced by Golden Era Productions, including the now-infamous Tom Cruise video where he states that Scientologists are the only ones who can help at the scene of an accident, among other things. The Church of Scientology and its supporters have repeatidly stated that this video was heavily edited and taken out of context, and that is why it appears so strange to many people.

However, Mark Headley, who produced this video, has stated that the version seen on youtube and on the internet has NOT been edited in any way.

Quoting Mark:

“And those videos, the way they appear, they are not been edited after the fact. That is actually what aired and that is what played to the Scientologists. I know people will tell you different but those were straight off the DVDs.”

Mark Headley Interview with Kevin and Bean, KROQ 4/8/08

http://kroqfs.com/kbpodcasts/KBpodcast_4808.mp3

Mark Headley interview occurs from 41:43 - 55:24 on this mp3.

The quote above can be heard at 48:30 minutes.

I ask all media, PLEASE don’t leave your viewers or readers with the false impression that someone purposefully edited this video just to make Tom cruise look strange. The video appeared exactly as it was produced. Opinions about its strangeness should be left to the individual viewer to decide for themselves. Oprah shouldn’t be doing damage control for Tom Cruise by spreading a lie.

Any chance of doing a phone interview with Andrew so he can respond–on air–to the fact that Tom (with a HUGE assist from Oprah, who fed him every morsel) basically dragged him through the mud on her little mock interview?

Actually, I’d like to hear a point by point reaction of him of the WHOLE interview. Read parts of it to him, and have him give his reaction.

Any hopes here? Would he do it “on the record” with you?

I think he will try to come across as a regular guy……like he’s not that whack job jumping up and down on Oprah’s couch and he’s not really as batshit crazy as he is in the video of him espousing his religion. It’s a little too little a little too late!!

The “bat’s” out of the bag now Tom…..we got your number and not even Oprah can fix this mess you got yourself into. The thetans say, “It’s over……let it go….cry us a river and become a janitor.”
