        I mean as far as yeonmi-park news reporting goes that’s pretty good ngl

        Although they had to fucking squeeze in “Kim attended the event after guiding nuclear tactical exercises targeting South Korea over the past two weeks, which state media said were designed to counter recent joint naval drills by South Korean and U.S. forces involving an aircraft carrier.”

        Like seriously imagine if they reported on other countries like this.

          That’s still surprisingly good for them though. I’m surprised they mentioned the DPRK’s reasons for the drills at all, instead of just insisting they are “training for war” or something. Especially crazy that they actually mention the timeline of events correctly. They actually specify that this is a reaction to the US and SK’s drills. I very rarely see that in the western press.

        How long until they are told by their handlers to take down the story and claim they were hacked?
