Summary Just over a month has passed since the police received the first alarm that a murder had been committed in Knutby. Since then, column after column has been written, and leaflet after leaflet about the mysterious sect, where sexual oppression and infidelity are said to have been part of everyday life. All the media - press, radio and TV - have kept the drama alive. This is the ultimate reality show - albeit with involuntary participants. Because what has it really been like for the people in the congregation that journalists so contemptuously call a sect? Has the media given them a chance? Or does the story simply sell too well? So Mediemagasinet also traveled to Knutby, but with a different purpose: not to tell about the crime, but about a different reality. One that is not about sex, murder and jealousy, but about the art of surviving a journalistic siege. Patrik Waldau, a member of the Filadelfia parish in Knutby, is despairing and appalled: - The journalists threatened us by saying: "If you don't say anything now, we will hang you tomorrow".
