Considering the media controls the Moon administration has put on the press in South Korea why is anyone surprised by this?:
Journalists, including those from outside South Korea, attend to covering the third inter-Korean summit between South Korean President Moon Jae-in and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un on Sept. 18-20 at the Main Press Center in Dongdaemun Design Plaza in Jongno-gu, Seoul. Joint Press Corps
Foreign reporters based in Seoul are upset that they were not invited to Pyongyang to cover the three-day inter-Korean summit from Tuesday to Thursday.
“Foreign media should be there because it is an international event surrounding the biggest foreign policy concern of the U.S.,” NK News managing director Chad O’Carroll told The Korea Times, Wednesday.
He has made five times of trips to the North since 2010.
“South Korean media were welcomed en masse to Singapore and hundreds of South Korean journalists went, because that issue was as much of concern to Seoul as the inter-Korean summit is to foreigners,” he said.
Although a journalist with South Korea’s English media was included in the media delegation to Pyongyang, O’Carroll said there was still need to invite foreign reporters to provide different perspectives to global audiences. [Korea Times]
You can read more at the link, but Mr. O’Carroll is a smart guy and I am sure he understands the Kim regime and the Moon administration do not want different perspectives. They planned a carefully crafted narrative for the Inter-Korean Summit and allowing foreign reporters was something that could potentially chip away at the narrative they created.
Since Moon Pie has gone to pay homage at the mountain of communism in Norkland, how long before he starts amending the Constitution of South Korea making himself benevolent dictator of the South and start quashing any dissent without killing the chaebol golden geese outright? Of course that will include holding the door open as the USFK & UNC GTFO.
