Embarrassment for NBC News after Lester Holt apparently falls for North Korean propaganda
By Brian Flood
NBC News is reeling after Nightly News anchor Lester Holt appears to have been badly fooled by North Korean propagandists -- giving a cheery report from a ski resort in the Hermit Kingdom that looked to be bustling when it was widely known to actually be a ghost town.
Holt -- who returned early from North Korea after scathing reviews -- reported for Nightly News from the Masikryong ski resort on Monday, a facility that is the brainchild of Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un and is typically empty. The resort, built to create the appearance of a prosperous nation, was largely deserted during peak 2017 ski season, according to multiple reports.
But for Holts appearance, the North Korean government appears to have brought in skiers wearing identical outfits and staged the scene, something Holt did not appear to realize.
The resort is a source of immense pride for a country trying to present a new and modern face to the world, Holt said during his report.
NBC News did not respond to requests for comment as to whether Holts unexpectedly early departure from North Korea was related to the embarrassing ski resort snafu. But inside 30 Rockefeller Plaza, NBCs more seasoned journalists were cringing.
Who produced this garbage? asked an NBC insider. It is field producing 101 -- dont do a standup somewhere thats been staged by a dictatorial regime.

Jester Dolt.
Maybe there’s more to the story - I can’t help but think of James Franco in “The Interview”.....
This is actually a positive for Holt. It proves that he is willing to sacrifice all rationality in the name of leftism. Leftists will admire him for his total dedication to their cause.
Child slave labor on-site, and numerous accidents with deaths covered up, rushing to finish a project in one tenth the time for Starr propaganda purposes.
The only saving factor for Ole Les is only true believing comrades watch him anyway so no one noticed anything being “staged.”
Holt the Dolt
You heard it here first: I predict Megyn Kelly will eventually get Lessie’s job.
Lester Holt like his son Stephan Holt Chicago who followed him onto TV here Chicago and then onto TV in NYC are affirmative action hires.
They are to broadcast television what chain migration is to immigration.
Lester praising of his hosts as he was probably soiling himself.
I saw part of his report from the ski resort and it took a microsecond to notice all the “skiers” had on brand new outfits, all the same style in a variety of colors, like a bunch of clones. So fake.
Bkmrk.
NBC News is a co-conspirator in their privation and probable deaths.
Libtards.....
Libtards.....
The reason Bill Clinton was impeached was because he lied under oath in a sexual harassment case. IT WAS NOT because he effed a bunch of media bimbos, Hollywood stars, or common DC sluts. It was because he lied under oath IN A SEXUAL HARASSMENT CASE.
Do you liberal elites understand the difference?
Oh and there were credible RAPE charges against Clinton... So, Edward-Issac Dovere - give it up. We don't give a damn what Clinton or Trump did with sex workers... or types that are the equivalent...or consensual boinking... but we do care about rape and about Clinton lying under oath to damage an innocent woman.
