BBC reporter in row with Scientology over video:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/6650545.stm (Why is this in your Americas section, BBC website? Scared? The documentary is on tonight on BBC TV in Britain!)

Scientology: look, Sweeney yelled at us, boohoo :-(

BBC's reply: wait a minute, you yelled at him too, look! :-(

Wow, he really lost it. Still, best advertising the programme could possibly have.

The apology from the beeb is on the UK page.

It seems pretty unprofessional but also human. How many times must reporters really want to go off on one but hold back, I guess he'd just had enough.

The youtube comments are a bit freaky too. But no surprise there.

i saw this on breakfast this morning... am i wrong, or isn't he actually incorrect when saying as a british person he has a right to freedom of speech? i was under the impression that such a right isn't enshrined anywhere in our lawbooks.

The Human Rights Act gives us the right to freedom of speech- article 10 of the European Convention is that of Freedom of Expression.
