Propaganda & Missile Launching TV

I'm just about to turn 50, which means I was a teenager when the highest tech thing around was a shortwave radio. It was also the deepest period of the Cold War and the shortwave bands were full of propaganda broadcasts from Russia, China, Albania and the counter arguments from the USA's propaganda outlets Voice of America, Radio Liberty etc.

One radio station that really fascinated me was Radio Pyongyang from North Korea, the programming was rather unique and focused around their view of the South Koreans as a bunch of wimps and puppets of the USA. I even built a RTTY decoder for my home built MicroBee computer, and discovered North Korean RTTY propaganda.

Well the world has moved on. The USSR is gone and now Red China owns much of the USA. But it's good to see some traditional old-time values remain. The North Korean's are still hammering out the propaganda.

Here are some screenshots of Korean Central TV from Pyongyang as received in Sydney via Thaicom 5 last night.

As you can see "The Dear Leader" Kim Jong-il is personally supervising the construction of a dam that will serve his loyal and hard working comrades. This will ensure North Korean central reliance without having to accept any aid from the great serpent nation (America). The news reader is very also excited about the new dam.

There are no commercials in the daily 5 hour broadcast, there is not that many shops in North Korea, so flowers are shown between programs instead.

Next week North Korea is planning to launch a satellite (the USA think its actually a missile test) - I can't wait!

I think they might need more than one missile to achieve world domination, but I guess they are trying.
