But bigot Kevin Dugan crossed that line long ago.
And while Dugan has no evidence to back up his anti-Scientology claims, we have plenty to prove why he writes them: Kevin Dugan is a closet member of a secret anti-Scientology hate group.
That group, The Outer Banks, is dedicated to the destruction of the religion Dugan wants you to think he “covers.”
That’s why Dugan doesn’t disclose that he is an active member.
Her message was clear: Like us, Dugan wants to “destroy” Scientology.
On February 17, 2022, Dugan published his debut post, asking fellow members of the hate group to come forward with disparaging allegations about the Scientology religion.
“Hi, everyone,” he began. “Some of you may know that I’m a reporter and have been working on a story for the last few months about Scientology.”
Dugan had joined the group much earlier at the invitation of Karen de la Carriere, a former call girl who was expelled from the Church 15 years ago, and today boasts how she “owns” the anti-Scientologists she pays to spread hate.
De la Carriere helped launch the clandestine Facebook group in 2013, announcing: “The Outer Banks is a special ‘secret’ information sharing group on Scientology.… Copying and/or pasting our posts elsewhere (anywhere) is STRICTLY FORBIDDEN.”
Indeed, Dugan’s conflict of interest was his big FORBIDDEN secret—the one he never intended the public to uncover.
Posts in the hate group Kevin Dugan joined as a card-carrying member include:
- “Scientology must be smashed to pieces.”
- “Make them suffer.”
- “Scientology should be shut down.”
- “Destroy Scientology.”
- “Another reminder: I hate Scientology.”
“If you’re open to talking, you can reach out to me directly on here,” Dugan wrote, inviting members to communicate with their resident “reporter” on their own secret platform.
“I have worked with Kevin for well over a year and can vouch for him,” de la Carriere replied.
Her message was clear: Like us, Dugan wants to “destroy” Scientology.
After “well over a year” of conspiring with one of the hate group’s founders on how to weaponize press badges to “make them suffer,” Dugan concealed everything in the article he went on to publish, loyal to the secret cause he serves above all else.
Then he began the cycle anew this year.
This time, disguised as a reporter for The Wall Street Journal, Dugan published a 3,914-word hate screed extending his rabid anti-Scientology obsession by targeting a parishioner solely for his “deep ties with the Church.”
If Dugan had his way, the public would never know the identity of his biased sources—what motivates them, or what they stand to gain.
Dugan endeavored to damage the Scientologist’s business with innuendo procured from anonymous sources—sources he refused to identify and whose conflicts remain unknown.
Because if Dugan had his way, the public would never know of his participation in a hate group created to advocate for the destruction of the subject of his “reporting.”
If Dugan had his way, the public would never know the identity of his biased sources—what motivates them, or what they stand to gain.
If Dugan had his way, he would inspire fear in every Scientologist for choosing to exercise their freedom of religion.
Why? Because Dugan’s allegiance is not to The Wall Street Journal, nor to his profession, and certainly not to the truth.
Dugan’s only allegiance is to his own Bigotry and Hate.
The evidence? A glance at the replies to Dugan’s September 14 Outer Banks manifesto—published on WSJ.com—serves as ample evidence of who he truly works for:
- “Everything Scientologists do is calculated.”
- “I wouldn’t trust anyone associated with this ‘religion.’”
- “Scientology is a cancer. Stay away.”
Dugan served his masters well.
And perhaps even groomed a few new foot soldiers for their depraved “war” on a religion.
