Scînteia, 21 December 1989: "Cuvîntarea tovarășului Nicolae Ceaușescu la posturile de radio și televiziune"

Masthead and lead headline of the party daily Scînteia, issue no. 14 725 of Thursday 21 December 1989, 6 pages, 50 bani: the paper's name between the PCR emblem and state orders, the motto 'Proletari din toate țările, uniți-vă!', and a headline giving 'Comrade Nicolae Ceaușescu's speech on radio and television'. The tell: the paper is described on its own masthead as the organ of the party's Central Committee, and the revolutionary motto and decorations frame the leader's address as the party's voice.
