Anonymous Scientology Boston Protest Coverage

I headed over the the Boston Church of Scientology to file some reports for Rocketboom.com

It was cold and rainy with temperatures in the 30's. The group of protesters I saw there looked like a cross between an Improv Everywhere and and Halloween party crowd.

My request for an interview with someone from the Church was not answered.

I streamed three LIVE reports with my Nokia N95 using ATT and Qik:



YouTube Version.

#1. Has 'Hey Joanne this is Steve Garfield' intro for Rocketboom and a quick interview with a couple of protesters.



#2. Has a chant that goes around (4) street corners, "Religion Should Be Free!"

YouTube, MySpace, Metacafe, DailyMotion, Veoh and Crackle



#3. Is an interview with a former Scientologist. He gives his name in the piece and has some good quotes at the end. It was a good interview but for some reason the stream cut out at :58 seconds. D'oh.
