Michelle Jackson+FollowNBC LA’s 30-minute Scientology ad sparks outrageA 30-minute Church of Scientology ad recently aired on NBC Los Angeles, and Leah Remini isn’t holding back.

What do you think—should local stations be more transparent about paid content, especially from controversial groups? #Religion #LosAngeles #Scientology70Share
