Just when I thought that it wasn't possible for Arirang TV to sink any lower ... it did.

As you are probably aware by now, Israeli jets destroyed a stockpile in Syria that could have been used to make nuclear weapons, and it was from North Korea. Also, Israeli commandos seized nuclear material in Syria, and it, too, was from North Korea. It's not too surprising, as this isn't the first time the North Koreans have sold weapons to the Middle East. Five years ago, they were caught red-handed selling missiles to Yemen.

So with not much to do during the Chuseok holidays, I was watching Arirang TV, which cited North Korean media, which was, of course, trying to deny that they were involved. Shame on you, Arirang TV. Everyone in the world knows that the North Koreans are lying. No one else would cite them as a credible source. Shame on you.

Apparently the people who work at Arirang are all graduates of the, Joseph Goebels school of lies and propoganda.
Not only does the Korean government fund proganda via Arirang, but they also fund Korean Newspapers overseas in Australia, Canada, and the US. These Newspapers are also full of Korean Nationalistic Propaganda.

I always thought that Arirang TV was the most stupid, cheesy, boring, baseless, idiotic station I have ever watched in my life. Who honestly watches that station? I hate to ask.

I agree and I only watch it when I want to raise my blood pressure a few notches. But to the OP, are you sure they were not just reporting the fact that NK media had denied any technology transfer?
