Hard to say if a coup would be a good thing or not. Sort of a choice between the same old tyrant and a new, revitalised tyrant.

Haha, in a way it's impressive - here we are, twenty first century, 24/7 news coverage all over the world, and when it comes to North Korea they can only manage rumors of most powerful man in the country being assassinated.
Are you surprised that the news sucks? Nowadays the "news" consists of little more than reporters doing stenography for the rich and powerful.

Yes because everybody knows newspapers sell more copies & tv news has more share when they don't appeal to a mass audience.

That's not what I was talking about.
Can you imagine news "Rumors of Angela Merker being assassinated"?
I'm just making an observation at how ridiculously shut away from the world norks are.

Don't bother, Kokes. If that went completely over his head the first time he's not going to understand it the second time.

I can understand Mary Carey, Katee Holmes and even Tyra Banxxx. But Angela Merker? That's just sick.
