Predictably, you talk badly about supposed western "propaganda" against the North Korean government, and then turn right around and use a documentary that consists of nothing but propaganda (which was funded by a propagandist/communist news network, no less) as 'proof" of your point.
I'm sure if we read some Iraqi or Iranian newspapers they wouldn't have a lot of nice things to say about the U.S. either, by posting a sympathetic documentary it's me saying "Hey, you know people lie and aren't always truthful when they're talking about their enemies. Why don't you do some research from unbiased 3rd parties before you make up your mind"

Let's stick to the topic, please.
Giving an alternate reality and view point isn't disrespectful.
It's meant to point out how ridiculous it is to take what an American website says about one of America's current enemies as 100% fact without questioning it.

@ Attempting to claim that RT news is an "unbiased 3rd party" when even noted Russian diplomats have proclaimed it to be "the best Russian propaganda machine targeted at the outside world" and journalists of integrity everywhere have lambasted it for being sympathetic to oppressive communist regimes.
You're not fooling anybody but yourself.

Originally posted by The_Bringer View PostNo, it's meant to create controversy. Like all of your canned responses are - Whether it's about President Obama being a "bum ass food stamp President", North Korea being a utopia of happiness, or Antonio Margarito being innocent of loading his gloves.
Originally posted by The_Bringer View PostProbably not. But this isn't the first time we've heard these claims of North Korean cannibalism, either.
Originally posted by The_Bringer View PostNo, it's more like you saying : "Hey, there's a great opportunity for me to play the role of a contrarian ****."

If I have to paint myself as cunt for people to seek the truth then that's what I'll do.. because I'm the hero that Boxingscene deserves but not the one it needs right now, and so they'll hunt me because I can take it, because i'm not a hero.. I'm a silent guardian, a watchful protector a Brown Knight.Last edited by LeG00N; 01-28-2013, 11:10 PM.

I'm not surprised at the lack of respect they get by Americans. Al Jazeera is deemed as an extremist terrorist sympathizing news network by Americans aswell. While the rest of the civilized world respect them, their news coverage and amazing journalism.
I stand behind my views on the bum president and Margarito's innocence. North Korea however I don't know the current situation and I'm not easily indoctrinated by western propaganda. I haven't done enough research on the matter.... like most people in this thread whose knowledge of North Korea and their shortcomings consist of FOXNEWs and MSNBC news articles they find on google.
We've heard Obama is a Marxist communist 10000 times are we to assume it's true because we've heard it more than once? do his accusers have an agenda? Probably ,but the people reporting on North Korea don't right? we should take it as fact
I never claimed they were an unbiased 3rd party. I did say giving two biased views could inspire someone to seek out the truth which is more likely somewhere in between. Which is better then coming into this thread like a Liberal sponge willing to soak up any and all propaganda that's thrown at them. I love being able to inform myself while provoking thought and hunger for knowledge.

Carry on.

It is very difficult to get accurate information on N. Korea.
This may be true.
It is difficult to confirm, also.
I would err on the side of cynicism though, regarding the state of affairs in N. Korea.
So, in other words, I would say it is sufficiently likely that this report is true.
But, the sources need to be scrutinized, also.
