It really is a shame, as accurate reporting enables their crimes to be documented better, and gives them less ammo on the world stage.

“How can we be mistreating our citizens? Remember when people said sarcasm was banned? Haircuts had to be approved and the same? How can you believe anything.”

Documenting people/governments/coprorations for the things they’ve actually done is the most we can ask for. Making shit up on the fly for a quick buck is the death of truth. It just enables them to deflect everything and anything.

There’s dozens of reasons to dislike/distrust North Korea. We don’t need to make ones up.
