Wow, do you mean that they have an opinion of their own and are allowed
to air it unlike other media organizations in the "free" U.S of A? How unpatriotic of them! Freedom fries all the way! I'm not defending communist Cuba or N. Korea, but just open your mind and think that maybe you are not getting the 'real' news all the time. UJ wrote: If its communist anti-America propoganda you want to hear, check out Radio Havana at frequency 6.000 AM in the evenings USA time. One of their favorite "news" topics concerns five political prisoners they claim the US is holding. Also, much anti - 'war on terror' rhetoric. And not surprisingly, they seem to be favoring Kerry as well. MB (Frank White) wrote in message ... In article , -SPAM says... There was some right wing gal on Fox News(sic) Channel tonight claiming that Radio Pyongyang was singing the praises of John Kerry everyday. Can anyone confirm that this is occurring? I can neither confirm or deny it (mainly because I can't get Pyongyang), but I have to say it wouldn't suprise me in the slightest. North Korea is an old style Communist country (which is also going down the toilet; the two facts are not unrelated) and uses old fashioned propaganda methods. To their mind Bush is the enemy; Kerry is against Bush; therefore, they support Kerry, regardless of his politics. The only thing that would make the slightest difference to them would be if Kerry said North Korea was an incompetant dictatorship that had to be deposed. THEN Pyongyang would treat him like the Anti-Christ, and call for his execution as an international war criminal. You can ignore North Korea. What they say is of no importance in U.S. domestic politics. FW |

I've listened to Havana's "news" a few times, and they seem to be more
60s type "New Left" than Pyongyang, which is more old line Stalinist. Two completely different branches of Communism. I have a contact I met thru Radio Netherlands in Cuba...He ask for simple items like Celine Dion CD, old magazines, etc He always sends me postcards or some other junk that has no value. I attribute this to his socio-economic status. Imagine if I had a pen-pal in North Korea~what would that be like ? spd |

Once the Great Leader dies (assuming he ever actually does, and doesn't stay alive for decades more just to hack off future U.S. Presidents), the changes in Cuban society should be dramatic and fascinating to watch. Seen it before, and I know with certainty that I'll see it again! This is not an indictment of Arnie, everyone must operate within the context of the society in which they live. In current Cuban society, especially if they want to KEEP living... FW |
