Death of Lisa McPherson - Injunction Against The Film The Profit

Injunction Against The Film The Profit

During the civil suit against the Church of Scientology brought by McPherson's family members, an injunction was sought and obtained to keep the Scientology-critical film The Profit from being shown to avoid prejudicing the jury pool against Scientology.

Famous quotes containing the word film:

    “To read a newspaper for the first time is like coming into a film that has been on for an hour. Newspapers are like serials. To understand them you have to take knowledge to them; the knowledge that serves best is the knowledge provided by the newspaper itself.”
    —V.S. (Vidiadhar Surajprasad)
