Dear Editor,

I write concerning an article entitled “Overambitious Brie Larson Wants to Snatch Career Best Role.”

The article contains an anti-Scientology slur which I am requesting your assistance to have immediately removed.

As you likely know, Scientology is a recognized religion in the United States and across the globe. Ben Mukherji’s description of it is as offensive and ignorant as it is misleading.

I am sure you will agree that discriminatory rhetoric against any religious group or minority has no place in 2021 on a website which states its intention to “understand with clarity,” “interpret with accuracy,” “engage with empathy” and “lead with insight.”

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Sincerely,

Bari Berger
