Following last week’s publication of an article by Paul Sims reporting that flying saucers were seen to hover over British Scientology headquarters, The Sun newspaper issued this apology:
“In an article on Saturday headlined ‘Flying saucers over British Scientology HQ’, we stated ‘two flat silver discs’ were seen ‘above the Church of Scientology HQ’.
Following a letter from lawyers for the Church, we apologise to any alien lifeforms for linking them to Scientologists.”
— “Aliens: An Apology,” The Sun
