The Media Sides With North Korea Over The United States At The Olympics

http://dailycaller.com/2018/02/11/north-korea-olympics-mainstream-media/

The mainstream media’s glorification of totalitarian hellholes won’t strike anyone familiar with 20th century history as new, but this weekend’s coverage of North Korea’s regime at the Olympics would make even former New York Times journalist Walter Duranty blush.

As the 2018 Olympics Winter Games began in South Korea, reporters from various networks clapped like seals at North Korean dictator Kim Jong-Un’s pathetic attempt at charming journalists into accepting his regime as legitimate, choosing to woo them over with synchronized cheer squads and having his sister Kim Yo Jong glower at Vice President Mike Pence.

CNN led the charge , tweeting out an article with a title claiming that “Kim Jong Un’s sister is stealing the show at the Winter Olympics.” What show she’s stealing is unclear, as most Americans were under the impression that they were trying to watch sports, not dolled up murderers. Unsurprisingly, CNN needed three of its best and brightest reporters to come up with that thesis.

The power of Juche seemed to reach the offices of The Washington Post , who declared on the front page of its Sunday paper that Un’s sister is the “Ivanka Trump of North Korea,” The aforementioned articled proceeded to describe how Kim Yo Jung “captivates people in the South at the Olympics.” Indeed, she might captivate people in the South — but only if you include liberal Western journalists.

Our lovely media’s communist copulation didn’t stop there. ABC News gasped as “ North Korea’s 200-plus cheerleaders steal spotlight at 2018 Winter Olympics with matching outfits, synchronized chants.” Nevermind that you could find far more talented (and better nourished) women at any Texas high school football game.

None of this stopped The New York Times from referring to t he cheer squad as an “army of beauties,” or the Wall Street Journal from saying their saccharine chants as “impossible…to ignore.” Even the official NBC Olympics said they were “so satisfying to watch.”

Presumably, Reuters felt obligated to play catch up and claimed Sunday morning: “ North Korea judged winner of diplomatic gold at Olympics.”

It goes without saying that North Korea’s conduct during this weekend was a deliberate attempt to make their regime appear sympathetic and create the illusion that the United States is the true barrier to peace between the two nations. Journalists, with their fancy degrees and ostensible interest in appearing educated, should know this better than anyone else.

Of course, only one thing could cloud their moral judgement this much: A Republican in the White House.

The "collective" left wing media swoon over this bitch and her murderous family is disgusting in the extreme. The left is desperately trying to humanize these awful people. MSN.com regularly has articles about the little pudgy one, and he is always smiling and looking happy about how he treats his people. At least a large number of South Koreans aren't standing for it. And then there was the stupid NBC announcer (a supposed China expert) saying that Japan's occupation of Korea was somehow beneficial to the Koreans??

The "Left" humanizes EVERYTHING not "America".

Schumer and Pelosi are just one of those grand supporters of everything "Not Here" !

Leave it to the US left wing and its complicit media to glorify rogue regimes that violate human rights.

  • Kim Yo-jong is NoKo's Director of Propaganda and Agitation Department
  • Kim dynasty has a brutal human rights record
  • North Korea's population (2016) was approximately 25,300,000
  • 80K - 120K jailed in political prison camps
  • N. Korea bans freedom of speech
  • Approximately 18,000,000 citizens depend on government food rations
  • Approximately 10,000,000 citizens are malnourished

You have to remember that their champion was someone who wanted to fundamentally change America.

"Change" to what the rest of the "Slow Poke" world was doing for sure. thumbs down

Why would someone tout wanting to be like the rest of a world, that even after thousands of years, hasn't reached the superiority of a country that has truly only been around for 300 years or so. close call

Can we say "Stupidshit" thinking ? stunned

I remember the days of the true U.S. "Armature" in the Olympics. Media was all about the "U.S.A" then. la de da

Now it seems we have a bunch of spoiled "Professional" millionaire brats competing. Wasn't that the complaint by the U.S.A. about the Russians back in those days ? They used "Professionals" as competitors ?

The Olympics SUCKS anymore. Used to be 24 hrs of ALL competitions, no matter how small, and now it's pick and chose what we can see.

AND NOW.........

The Olympic coverage is worse than that. We MUST be able to see the politics of it. close call

That's the media's fault. The athletes are doing their best and very few have time for politics, except a couple of gays.

Lindsay helped too.

Gotta luv it when Olympic "Professionals" make it about politics for "Their own gain".

Welcome to frustration, boys and girls.

I've been living with the media darlings of the Middle East  - the Palestinians - for about 20 years now.

How's it feel?

The liberal media somehow manages to sink to a new low.

I hope Otto's parents do not have to read this fawning over the regime that tortured and killed their young son for taking a poster.

Liberals have no dignity, none.
