Committed cult member Jenna Elfman sure knows how to parrot Scientology’s “poor us” talking points.

A couple weeks ago, YouTube removed Mark Bunker's xenutv1 account on the grounds that his previous account, xenutv, had contained copyright infringements and thus violated YouTube's terms of service--even though his xenutv1 account did not.
