Thank you for your comment - you see, I was unaware of this.

It's interesting that you should bring this up. Malcom Muggeridge, who 
had been a print news correspondent in 1930s Russia, wrote a book called 
Winter in Moscow in which he states that they knew what Stalin was doing 
but chose to not report it because of their ideology.
