All quiet on the eastern front

My, what a quiet week it's been for the Ministry of Information: only nine releases so far for the week, when they have averaged over six a day for the past year.

What's up?

A) The Minister of Information didn't want any Important Happy News! to get lost in the Andy Wells crossfire and fallout.

B) CRA is about to go into the field, so the Minister of Information is saving poll-manipulating ammo.

C) Williams Government isn't really accomplishing that much.

D) Any combination, or all, of the above.
