On 15 December 2016, multiple web sites reported that a new Russian reality show called Game 2: Winter would allow rape and murder while contestants were participating in Siberia: Readers who spotted the article floating around on social media often missed a less visible, slightly contradictory sub-heading that said: The article described the waiver, but reiterated that all crimes committed in the course of the show were prosecutable: Deadline provided further details about the show, which was purportedly in production as of December 2016: The Siberian Times's coverage of the planned Russian reality show cited a 1 July 2017 start date for pre-filming activity, and was the likely source of inaccurate rumors: At the time of the reports' circulation in mid-December 2016, material relating to Game2: Winter consisted of a small Facebook page and interviews with its creator. Despite multiple misleading headlines, the waiver described by news outlets explicitly stated that contestants on the show would be obliged to obey the laws of the Russian Federation.
