Chris Chandler responds to your criticisms and comments of this week
Tony Hollom, of Morton Road, East Grinstead, didn't like our report on the East Grinstead-based Church of Scientology, on May 12, saying he was a Scientologist and we were wrong to attack its secrecy when our reporter, David Edwards, had gone undercover.
Sorry, Tony, but David - an award-winning reporter - would not have managed to reveal what he did about your so-called Church unless he had gone incognito and we will always defend the right of our reporters to do so if it is in the public interest. As long-term readers of this newspaper will know, the mysterious and sinister work of the Scientologists must be exposed to public scrutiny by whatever means.
