COMBATING BIGOTRY & HATE
Do “fun-loving,” “feel-good” Hoda and Jenna have a clue that they’re fawning, giggling and fussing over someone with blood on her hands and hate in her heart?

Ortega claims to work under the umbrella of journalism. In fact, he’s an internet tabloid blogger at the hire of anti-Scientologists, and he writes what his clients order.
