The Local News Station

Johanna's feet felt like cement as Doug and his men led her, Amber, and Quinn into the headquarters for the Local News Station. She knew that he had some devious planned, and she had a good idea of what that was.

They were mobbed as soon as they walked through the door. Apparently, some of the news people had seen the online videos of the girls and wanted to interview them for the evening segment. Soon, the crowd doubled and then tripled in size. Microphones were shoved towards the girls, and questions came from every direction. Johanna's head whirled as she tried to take it all in. Of course, with the gags in their mouths, the girls could not answer the reporters' questions, even if they wanted to.

Unluckily for them, Doug and his boys were more than willing to answer for them.

"Girls, you were some of the leaders of the march to keep women's rights the other day," said one reporter. "Does your new attire signify a shift in that mentality?"

"I'll answer that one for them," said Doug, grinning. "These three sluts are here to atone for their past actions. They realized they were out of line and asked us to help punish them."

Johanna could not believe what she was hearing. Doug was blatantly lying to all of the people here. She found it even more difficult to believe that these reporters actually trusted what Doug was saying. Had they even looked at the situation Johanna and her friends were currently in?

As she became more and more frustrated, Amber and Quinn did as well. Quinn began to stamp her feet and gesture with her head. The men around her gripped her hair and arms to keep her under control.

"She doesn't seem to be very willing to be a part of this punishment," said one of the reporters.

"It's all for show!" said Doug. "They want to remind everyone that they're little brats who need to be punished. In fact, they wanted to be punished live on television for everyone to see."

This comment made all the reporters excited. The started to crowd around Doug, asking more and more questions. Johanna realized that these news people did not really care what the truth was: they just wanted the juiciest news story possible, and, right now, Doug was giving it to them.
