Scientology Spokesman Storms Out of ‘Nightline’ Interview

“Nightline” just can’t get through an interview anymore.

This week, PRNewser reported on a contentious interview in which Dan Harris was repeatedly interrupted by a publicist on Monday’s “Nightline.” On Friday night’s episode, an interviewee just walked away in the middle of a sit-down.

ABC’s Martin Bashir got into a heated discussion with Scientology spokesman Tommy Davis. After Bashir began to ask about the church’s scriptures and beliefs, Davis got upset and eventually ripped off his lapel mic and walked out of the room. Clip starts at 3:40 below.
