 * Advertisement voice:**

We interrupt your advertisement to give you breaking news. Our government, Sovnarkom has ordered members of the Cheka to begin a ‘Red Terror.’ We repeat, a ‘Red Terror. As all of you listeners know, the Reds and the Whites have been fighting for roughly 4 months now, and for a while it looked as though the Whites would win. Now, since the shooting of Lenin which he survived, the Sovnarkom has taken the revolution into their own hands and are determined to crush the White uprising. But have they gone too far this time? Over to our on site analysis, Mkhail Petrov. Mkhail, what do you make of this?
 * MC:**

Well the shots that were fired at Lenin could have triggered him to view the safety of the Soviet Union in a whole new light. You have to remember how it is that Lenin gained power – it was easy. Too easy. To any of you who don’t remember we still have some past footage of our interview with one of the Red Guard who stormed the Winter Palace on that day.
 * On site analysis:**

It was just so easy… so simple… we were gearing ourselves up for a bigger fight but they just surrendered… There will be many celebrations tonight. Tonight is the night that the Bolsheviks have won! The people have triumphed! Equality, peace and bread are in our grasp – what we have toiled for is nearly here. We have won.
 * Guard**:

But now his reign is being threatened and he most probably feels as though his power is slipping out of his grasp – this becoming a more urgent matter after he himself became a direct target. His paranoia is not completely unfounded since ever since the Bolsheviks have taken power the allied powers have rushed to organize a revolution against them, backing the population of Russia who do not support the Bolsheviks.
 * On site analysis**:

But today the citizens are in uproar at the Red Terror – fear quickly spreading throughout our nation. With us now is our field correspondent Vladimir Ivanov – Vladimir, are you with us?
 * MC:**

Yes hello, right now I am in the streets of Tannenburg where you can almost smell the fear on the streets. Next to me I have Irina Petrova, a civilian who has informed me is an avid supporter of the Whites – her husband having been killed by the Red Guard in the ongoing civil war. Irina, what caused you to take the brave move of publicly announcing your stance?
 * Field correspondent:**

Someone needs to speak up in the face of this terrible oppression. Although I was always against the Bolsheviks, I feel that this ‘Red Terror’ has gone way too far. The Bolsheviks are destroying Russia from inside, having given an unacceptable amount of land and money to Germany in the treaty of Brest-Litovsk. People have been talking about how the Bolsheviks are Germans spies, and I agree completely with this. It does not matter that they saved the provisional government – they destroyed it right after. They claim to be doing this for the people, and have imposed ridiculous measures that will never work and uprooted us, the capitalists. They do not care about the people of Russia or they would not be persecuting the innocent.
 * Interviewee 1:**

Thank you Irina – I think that’s all for now – the people here are not willing to speak out of fear that they will be persecuted for what they say, out of the 76 people I asked, Irina was the only person that was willing to give us an interview. Back to you at the studio
 * Field correspondent:**

Thank you Vladimir. Our time slot is nearing the end, but before we go, we have established communication with a general from the Red Guard on our phone line. General – are you there? Hello?
 * MC:**

Hello, yes, I am here in order to give the side of Stalin. I know the kind of one sided argument that the anti-Bolsheviks will present. We are imposing all of these measures for the good of the people. We have only the interests of the people of Russia in mind. We are trying to make everyone equal – so that the common people can have rights. These measures are for the good of the people, comrades. Are you really so selfish as that you think we want to harm the people of Russia? No comrades, these are necessary measures so that the Whites do not rise up and try to return the Tsar – you all know that white is the national colour of the Tsar. Is that really what you want? If someone is punished during the so called Red “Terror” it is only because that person was being completely SELFISH. They are the people that are cruel. They are the people that are for the oppression of us. Comrades – we are only doing what is best for you. The war communism is not a repressive thing – it is necessary in order for the Tsars rule never to be repeated.
 * General:**

Well that leaves you with many perspectives to think about regarding the upcoming measure of the “Red Terror.” This is RNN broadcast station. Thank you for listening. Goodbye. Type in the content of your new page here.
