North Korea To Punish Mourners Who Were Insincere
Newser reports that mourners who came off as insincere have already been sent to join the 200,000 other North Koreans already in labor camps. An Amnesty International report published in May 2011 paints a dark picture of what’s in store at those camps — estimates suggest that 40 percent of inmates die of malnutrition.
Please explain to me then why the “journalist” who wrote this thought it was appropriate to make light of the situation with this lead:
You’d better watch out, you’d better cry. You’d better pout, I’m telling you why: North Korea’s punishing insincere mourners…
Seriously, I could make an entire blog about bad journalism.
