There's a couple of new articles on Jason in regards to Scientology. What worries me though is that these articles are getting their information from the article that I wrote for Portrait and citing it as an actual "interview".

Scientology Saved 'Moonlight' Star's Acting Career
I hope the authors of the actual interviews that I took them from don't hunt me down! Eep!

That's weird, Angela. I hope it doesn't 'snowball'. Working in media can be scary.

I can't remember exactly, did you mention the original interview sources in your article?

On the flipside: you did get us more Jason press, that's awesome!

[JulieB]

Thanks for the links Angela. I think it will be ok though, don't worry.

Angela--hopefully no one comes after you.

The Scientology stuff always gets some attention. What can you do?

[alee23]

Roz - I hope not! I was reading a few of the comments made in those two articles and it makes me sad.

Mandy - No. I didn't. Usually if you take a line or two it's okay as long as you cite it as your own. It's odd because I wrote it the way I do with all my articles but this was the first time it got cited as an "interview". Now I have to go back and put a list of sources at thend just to cover myself.

I'm sure it'll be fine, Angela...no worries

[Mandy-J]

Mandy - No. I didn't. Usually if you take a line or two it's okay as long as you cite it as your own.

Really? That differs per country then. In Holland, that's prohibeted.

I'm sure this will blow over. Don't worry too much. The bright side is you started something very international, that's awesome. That's how many people read your article

[alee23]

Whoops that was a typo. I meant "don't cite it as your own".

[Mandy-J]

Oh haha, okay! That makes it easier to understand It;s like using a sample from a song right? When it's shorter than a certain amount of seconds you don't have to pay the musician, or something like that

Did we ever hear anything about Struck? I just read the plot outline and I kinda wanna see that film now

On his way to work one day, Joel (Bodhi Elfman) is impaled through the chest by a three-foot arrow. But it doesn't harm him. And it won't come out. So Joel has to learn to deal - both with his newfound protrusion, and his own painful loneliness. He tries to go to work, to date women, but no one seems ready to accept his strange flaw. Little does he know, his life is about to change forever...

Is that the short film Mandy he did?

[siobeehan]

It is indeed

The website for Struck is here. If you go to the Behind the Scenes, there's a very random but funny vid which Jason is in along with (all?) the other members of the cast

[JulieB]

^Thanks for the link!!

[Mandy-J]

Thanks for the link Siobhan!

That's the Scientology film, aha. He looks yummy in the Behind the scenes clip. I wish I could get me some way to rip the clip and make caps

[afrocurl]

I think someone made caps of it at some point (maybe not around for all of the internet to see), but that trailer makes me laugh SO much.

My computer is being lame so I'll try the link later. Thanks for all the news! Loved the Portrait article
