I think we found the biggest difference between N and S.

He would have been applauded here.

When I think truth, I think The Korea Times.

The headline said he "defecated" in the hallway, yet there's no mention of that in the story. Way to go Korea Times. And as objectionable as Rodman's behavior likely was, Koreans are in little position to accuse someone of "uncivilized behavior." I see it every day here.

Something's not right about his last departure.

He's an idiot.

At first, I though the U.S. Government should come down hard on him. But now I see that he's simply a joke. They don't take him all that seriously.

Watch the recent interviews, he's incoherent and emotional and just really messed up. The guy is a freak.

“I was with Dennis the entire January trip (day and night) and none of the allegations in the Korea Times or RFA articles are true, and trust me I would know. I’m really disappointed and surprised at how easily most of the SK media outlets turn rumour or bullshit leaks into news stories. I now have a better understanding of the poor quality of most of the journalism in SK. For this exact reason in the past few months I’ve outright refused to do interviews or respond to the SK media’s questions or inquiries in any way."

So, there you have it, folks. As much fun as it is to think of Rodman defiling a North Korean hotel, this story is most likely literal BS and just another sorry example of the shoddy journalism we’ve come to know and expect from the Korea Times.

yeah...

this article is complete BS

cuz the "Source" says "Kim Jong Un is to blame as well because nobody should be friends with this animal"

something along those lines.

If you were to openly criticize your LEADER in North Korea...

I don't think things would bode well for you.

Can you imagine yourself saying that kinda stuff in North Korea?

Complete BS man, no way was that comment made by someone who worked in North Korea =/
