News Corp chairman Rupert Murdoch took a swipe at Tom Cruise on Sunday in a series of tweets that labelled the Hollywood star a No 2 or No 3 person in the hierarchy of Scientologists, a group the media mogul called “creepy”.
Cruise, a star of the Mission: Impossible movies, has long been a prominent member of the Church of Scientology, which some have described as a cult. The actor made headlines on Friday when it was revealed his wife, actress Katie Holmes, had filed for divorce and is seeking sole custody of their daughter, Suri.
“Scientology back in news. Very weird cult, but big, big money involved with Tom Cruise either number two or three in hiearchy [sic],” Murdoch posted on Sunday on his official Twitter feed.
Later in the day, he tweeted: “Watch Katie Holmes and Scientology story develop. Something creepy, maybe even evil, about these people.”
