Not before the show starts

The news crew began to get Johanna, Quinn, and Amber into position for the evening show to start. The news anchor, Antonio Roiz, sat down at the desk with Doug sitting by his side. Antonio shuffled a stack of papers as the other crewmembers brought the girls to the front of the desk. Each girl had her arm restraints removed and their hands were placed on the desk, causing their asses to stick out towards the cameras. Three more cameras were placed in front of them so the news crew could also film their faces.

Now, with everyone in place, Antonio was just waiting for the cue to start the program. Behind the camera, the producer counted down.

"Welcome, everyone to the evening news, I'm news anchor Antonio Roiz, and I am here with a very special guest, Doug Herman. Doug, why don't you introduce yourself?"

"Hey, Antonio, thanks for having me," started Doug. "I'm here today to talk about a topic that you may have heard a lot about in recent days. That topic is the degradation of women's rights. Recently, a rally was held that called for the protection of women's rights, even in the face of discipline, and, frankly, I believe this rally was detrimental to our society. Women who need to be disciplined in order to behave don't know what they need. We, as responsible citizens, have to help decide for them."

"So, you don't believe that women's rights are at risk?" asked Antonio. "We have seen numerous laws being suggested lately that would arguably less the quality of women's autonomy."

"I think those laws are being overexaggerated," said Doug. "They aren't trying to restrict women's rights. They're just trying to protect women from themselves."

Johanna rolled her eyes and scoffed as well as she could through the gag. Doug was clearly bullshitting his way through this interview. It was clear he liked having the spotlight shone on him. If only she was allowed to speak, she would put him in his place.

"Speaking of women," said Antonio, "you've brought in three very special ladies today with you, Doug."

"That's right, Antonio," said Doug. "These women are some of the figureheads of the so-called movement. You have recognize them from the little stunt they pulled at the rally to gain support. They came to me and my friends to confess that they really felt bad about what they did. This is part of the punishment that we came up with."

"And can I ask why they are currently gagged?"

"We thought that it would be better to gag them in order to prevent them from accidently spewing harmful messages into the air again. All of the words that they need to say are written on their bodies."

"Interesting," said Antonio. "So, can we expect so live demonstrations of punishments for our viewers?"

"Of course, Antonio," laughed Doug. "That's the whole reason we're here after all!"

"Excellent! We'll be right back for that after this break!"
