One man's prank is another's assault.

I don't blame the prankster. I blame his unaudited thetans.

I saw the video of the incident, a little of the initial interview, the prank and a lot of Cruise's reaction. I am no fan of Tom Cruise, but he handled himself extremely well--very professional, didn't run away but didn't fly off the handle either. While I won't scramble to watch one of his movies, I do have a bit more respect for him.

The sad thing is it probably will be prosecuted further than a similar attack on a politician (except maybe a head of state) would.

We saw this on TV last night. The guy really was rude, but Cruise handled it awfully. He could have said something witty that showed the man to be what he was. Instead, he allowed himself to work up into a major hissy fit that made him look like the real jerk. The other guy appeared to see that he shouldn't have done what he did and turned away. Cruise appeared to be saying "I've condescended to talk to you little people and I'm not treated with all the respect I royally deserve."

Cruise handle himself great! A classy man...
To: Tumbleweed_Connection
Wow, at the top of his life, he's engaged again to a new beau, and this stuff happens, kind of a slap in the face?

Wonder how Tom feels about the pie throwing stunts aimed at conservatives...

Actually after seeing the way he mingles with the crowd last week, I was saying it was a pretty crazy thing to do, and here you go, he got attacked...Someone showed how easily it was to throw something in his face.. That could have easily been acid instead of water, or a bullet.

To be fair to Tom Cruise (I can't believe I just said that) but I would have been pretty P.O'd if someone did that to me. The chicken reporter should have tried that with Russell Crowe.

I thought Scientogists were supposed to be serene.
This goes to show that Cruise is kind of a mess when he finds himself in situations that publicists are not able to control.
To: Blue Turtle
Far better than i would have.
The so-called reporter would have received a tune-up, if ya know what i mean.

I'm not a huge Cruise fan, but to do this was extremely cruel.
