A version of the Arthur Miller play All My Sons, which just opened on Broadway, was the scene of a large-scale anti-Scientology demonstration last night. The play, which stars Dianne Wiest and John Lithgow, also includes a small role for Katie Holmes, who was targeted by protestors outside the Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre in midtown Manhattan.Holmes’s Scientologist husband Tom Cruise was present at the performance, and according to this Fox News report “about two dozen well-dressed young people poured into the theater with Cruise, and took orchestra seats.” Fellow Scientologists perhaps? Or maybe just Cruise's security team? Protestors outside the venue held up a number of banners and posters decrying Scientology, with one saying : “Run, Katie, Run! (And take Beck with you).”
The protesters were mostly from the Anonymous group, who wear masks to disguise themselves during their remonstrations against the Scientologists. The character of V from V for Vendetta is one of the most popular guises of the group, who reportedly claimed last night that: “Scientology kills people. It follows you home at night. It is perverted.” [NME]

The protesters are perverted. They are paid dupes. I can believe the news stoops to cover this idiocy.
