Space Race updates come in the form of television programs ever two days. Specimens can assume that when the USSR is in the lead, these programs are filled with moral panic over the threat of communism to the world, and to the American way of life and values.
Days when the US is ahead, of course, will be willed with patriotic propaganda and the importance of the US Space program.
Once Sam Wilson is contacted and he agrees that the real or imagined suspicions being brought against a person seem legit(ish). Any arrests over suspicious behavior will also be announced on this program, regardless of whether or not the person is found guilty of colluding with the Russians. This way, an accused person's name can be learned.
THE COMMUNISTS ARE SUSPECTED TO BE RECRUITING: Does it have something to do with those milk flyers? Is there some other way they're trying to corrupt American homes and children?
(OOC: If you'd be open to having someone try and recruit your character, or if you'd like a character to actively recruit, leave a note in the dropbox. Additionally, if you're comfortable outing one of your communist characters to try and actively recruit a friend to join them, you can discuss it OOC between players. Failed recruiting can also be decided OOC, meaning the attempted recruiter can be reported IC.)
