The BBC, which is known to progressive people as the British Brainwashing Corporation , has consistently lied about the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea(DPRK). Its coverage of the DPRK is one sided and exaggerated to say the least. On several occasions BBC reporters have used tricks and subterfuges to enter the DPRK .
It would take too long to list all the lies told by the BBC about the DPRK but here are some examples: On the 10th of February 2016 the BBC reported that former Chief of General Staff of the Korean People’s Army General Ri Yong Gil had been executed , e one about former chief of general staff of the Korean People's Army , Ri Yong Gil , have been proved false. General Ri was elected to a position at the 7th Congress of the Workers' Party of Korea held in May 2016 and was promoted in April 2017 (by order of Marshal Kim Jong Un) , far from being dead !. General Ri was made Chief of General Staff of the KPA again.In May 2016 BBC reporter Rupert Wingfield-Hayes signed a statement admitting that his reporting was biased and inaccurate. Amongst other things Wingfield-Hayes claimed that children at the Okryu Childrens Hospital were not ill and were actors!!!
The BBC consistently demonizes and smears the DPRK by using clichés like “impoverished”, “totalitarian “ and “ isolated “ . Rather than being impoverished the DPRK has a rapidly growing economy, it is a people-orientated society and rather than being isolated has diplomatic relations with over a 100 countries !
The UK Korean Friendship Association believes the BBC should stop lying about the DPRK and instead produce fair, accurate and objective material about People’s Korea
