Methinks a former manager of broadcast media has been taken to Room 101 and all traces of his existence are being scrubbed.
In the late 70’s I recall seeing a Soviet-made movie called Autumn Marathon. It was about a college professor in Leningrad who had built his entire existence around an intricate series of lies. A perfect allegory for Soviet society at that time. It won awards in the West and many were stunned that a film clearly referencing this could make it past the censors.
I rather suspect whoever was running the Censorship Office earned a one-way trip to Siberia by missing this one.
