Oh, that SUCKED BIG TIME. Just watched it, caww

Al Jazeera Propaganda.

How dare they.

They did not question this phony, staged DPRK crying at all. They stated the People were obviously "grieving" as they said their goodbye, and presented it as fact. They also said they are saying goodbye to their "Beloved" leader. Bullllllllshit! Sez who? Al Jazeera gave no context at all to the North Korean Myth-Narrative Nation-State based on lie after lie, they create the faulty impression that the North Korean people are actually sad over this man's passing, when in fact it is a Hollywood set and just another day. Al Jazeera should be absolutely ashamed of themselves for somehow passing this off as "reality". Where is the journalism. I suspect CNN will take this tact, too.

Shameless.

Thanks for sharing.

Yea, it was pretty poor reporting...but then consider the source..they do so with most reporting...never get things right but always thru the prism of their choosing. Perhaps sometime in the far future we'll hear the truth from the people of N. Korea, but I tend to think not much at all will change in their condition nor their country.

Well, they likely learned all they needed from Eason Jordan - he was the master at ensuring access for propaganda.

Thanks to you and all of the knowledgeable FReepers who are giving us the background and deep-level overview of the NK-Oriental interactions.
