YouTube - BBC reporter losing it!: "BBC reporter losing it!"
Watch this (it's only 41 seconds long):
Thats not nice is it. You shouldn't shout like that.
But it's a little strange isn't it. It's seems awfully out of context.
Well there is a reason. This is John Sweeney who at the time was filming a documentary about wait for it:
Scientology
They've been harassing him whilst he's been filming and that was him snapping.
From his explanation of the events on the Beeb's website he says:
While making our BBC Panorama film "Scientology and Me" I have been shouted at, spied on, had my hotel invaded at midnight, denounced as a "bigot" by star Scientologists, brain-washed - that is how it felt to me - in a mock up of a Nazi-style torture chamber and chased round the streets of Los Angeles by sinister strangers.
Back in Britain strangers have called on my neighbours, my mother-in-law's house and someone spied on my wedding and fled the moment he was challenged.
What you've just witness is Scientology try and destroy someone for questioning them.
Watch the video they uploaded again now. It seems so much sinister.
As Scientology uses the new media to try and protect itself the BBC will be using the "old media" to show them for who they are this monday at 8:30pm. I really recommend watching it.
