The picture fixes on live-images of the thousands of protestors arrayed outside the Pacitalian Embassy in Praeton.

"In the last few hours large crowds of Praetonians have gathered outside the Pacitalian Embassy in Praeton, protesting the continuation of Pacitalian relations with Roach-Busters after it emerged that Generalissimo JL ordered the murder of over a thousand Sanctaphrax citizens earlier today, and was then exposed attempting to cover up his blunder. Our Praeton Correspondant, Antonius Velix reports from outside the embassy."

The picture switches to a man holding a microphone standing to the rear of the crowds of protestors who are chanting, waving banners and burning Pacitalian flags.

"In the few hours I've been here I've felt a growing sense of hatred directed against the Pacitalian Government. This all started off earlier today with just a few passionate protestors who turned off with a few small home-made banners and stands. Now, the protest has grown into a ground of thousands kept under the watchful eye of the Civil Guard. [OOC: Police]"

The picture switches to show lines of Civil Guardsmen eying the protestors carefully.

"The chant of the protestors, "Democracy and Death" is symonious of the feeling here. People view Pacitalia as an active democracy and natural ally betraying its roots by supporting several genocidal and autocratic regimes around the world. One woman I interviewed earlier said that she had nothing against the Pacitalian people, but she believed that their government, when faced with a choice between Praetonian democracy and Parthian oppression had chosen Parthia. The crowd, for all their anger directed against this building, the symbol of the Pacitalian Government in Praeton, they want the Pacitalian people to rise up and no longer stand for their government supporting nations which are so at odds to their own ideals. Back to the studio."
