Examiner issues apology to university professor

In early June of 1998, the Edmonton Examiner inadvertently

distributed copies of the Freedom Journal to some Edmonton homes.

The Freedom Journal is published by the Church of Scientology

International and made certain allegations concerning University

of Alberta Professor Stephen A. Kent (PhD).

The Edmonton Examiner is not aware of any basis for the printed

allegations and was wrong to distribute material which represented

Professor Kent in a derogatory manner.

Further, the Edmonton Examiner apologizes to Professor Stephen A.

Kent for any embarrassment caused and sincerely regrets its role

in the distribution of this material.
