The Church of Scientology released a statement to Us Weekly about Remini’s lawsuit:
“In 2015, Ms. Remini was set to appear on Anderson Cooper’s CNN show to promoteon Wednesday, August 2, referring to her memoir about her exit from the organization. “Due to Scientology’s history of aggressive litigiousness, the interview was pre-taped so that it could be vetted by CNN’s legal department.”
