Seems like fair game to me. How many times has the local media stated that North Korean are all addicted to meth and that NK's leader killed his previous g/f?


However bad the western/Russian media bias is in regards to Ukraine, NK and SK surpassed that by a mile centuries ago when it comes to making up bull about each other.

What a pedestrian insult. They used to say a lot more entertaining stuff than that. Heck, I think Rob Ford has let out better blasts than that. Kim Jong Il knew how to run shop.

In Rob Ford's defense, he does have a pretty stiff competition in another part of the country.

Did that not happen? I thought they killed a bunch of musicians for making 'pornography' or something, and she was among them.

Basically, this bit of info comes from the same sources that say that most of North Koreans are on meth and acid. Basically, when you read a story that reads like it was borrowed from a soap opera and then edited by a detective novel writer, that should raise some flags - especially when there is no legit reference/proof. North Korea and South Korea have been going at it for a while - and the stories they make up about each other make comic books seem like history textbooks in comparison.

A big popaganda war usually leads to media retardation. At this stage, I think we should stick to fantasy/sci fi books for a more realistic storytelling.
