CBS, ABC, NBC, CNN would not have the courage nor decency to show it.

When the North Korean death camp gates are finally flung open after Kim Jong-il's assassination or our invasion or their internal economic collapse/chaos, then all the 'pretty boy' American news anchors will stream in to the northern N.K. provinces, wearing their safari suits and announce via satellite their 'shocking big, horrific discovery.'

A 'really exclusive scoop for the network'.

They cannot bear reporting on it right now, because it would tend to de-legitimize their mocking and criticism of the Bush "Axis of Evil" moral clarity position.

Barf.

I disagree. Even after the camps are liberated and the horrors are common knowledge, the newsies will largely ignore it because the crimes were perpetrated by communists.

Remember when Pol Pot died? I heard dozens of news stories and closely monitored how the media treated the story. Only ONE TIME did I hear them use the word "communist," and it was not applied to Pol Pot directly. He was described as a "dictator," but never as a communist.
