Bachelor thesis is about one of the largest show trials in Moravia, which happened between the 7th and 11th February 1950. Its goal is to discover the reason behind accusing these people and how it was related to their political affiliation. It also explores the investigation and the trial as a whole. The work also investigates how the show trial was shown in the newspapers and how the media tried to influence the public.
