And, what do you know, the story about the uncle of Kim Jong Un being eaten by dogs was a load of malarkey. (Blog: Kim Jong Un's Uncle Eaten by Wild Dogs)
Now ain't that a shock. (Gawker: Did That Execution-By-Hungry-Dogs Story All Start With a Twitter Joke?)
What's encouraging about it is that it shows how easy it is to hoax the media. You can see from the trail how this one spread. None of the news channels verified anything about the story and it was copied all over the place from the authority of the NBC copy which was based on the original rubbish from China.
It's a bit puzzling that people were so complacent that no-one thought for a moment, hold on, isn't this one just a little bit weird. Countless d'Bathory is reputed to have bathed in the blood of virgins and she is documented to have killed hundreds of them. To get into that echelon of evil, there has to be validation and no-one even looked. (WIKI: Elizabeth Báthory)
So Kim Jong Un remains a dimestore despot with a few military toys to bolster his blazing case of PCS (Penile Compensation Syndrome). Nothing interesting here.
In related news, Kim Jong Un's Minister of Defense vehemently denied that Kim Jong Un and Dennis Rodman are secret lovers and are away on a ski trip together.
We think things are not going well in the relationship as Rodman has sent him up the lift despite two little problems: Kim Jong Un has no skis and there's hardly any snow. As lover's retreats go, this does not appear to be a good one.
