1. There's this KCNA article which has awful homophobic comments

  2. This KCNA article which compares Obama to a "black monkey"

  • This article** does analysis which states that the monkey comparison was merely referring to being a "trickster" which ignores:
  1. This KCNA article which is the worst of them all. The racist comparisons are unmistakable in my opinion.

**The aforementioned analysis article has what I find to be pretty unconvincing excuses for the homophobic comments, the quote, "a disgusting old lecher" is not properly addressed.

I'm willing to hear any possible explanations. I don't know what's going on.

      There is a fourth apparently, one from the WPK magazine although I can't find the link. I actually would be interested to find out what happened to the author. The articles are no longer available even on naenara (although a lot of non-controversial ones aren't available either) so its possible there was regret.
