My free blog post is gonna be about North Korea. As we can see N. Korea is gettin great attention in the media recent years and especially now. Currently they are in the process of passing power to younger and inexperienced son of Kim Jong Il the current ruler. Recently they just announced Kim Jong Un as being promoted to a 4 star general at age 24-26 and soon leader. This is ridiculous in my opinion considering how inexperienced the young leader will be. The North Korean peninsula has always used its media to intimdate foreign powers by threatening great detterence and nuclear war. N. Korea in my opinion is underestimated because unlike our current war with terrorism. North Korea has one of the largest armies in the world of 1.2 million soldiers and also it is a nuclear powered state. Media and Justice is relevant because The country uses media to its advantage and to allow the world what it wants to know. Also N. Korea uses its media as a way to negotiate with countries and also pass threatening phrases towards its enemies. I think media is used strategically and with military purposes. Its not necessary a free press like the U.S. and that alone makes it relevant on how we recieve info and how we interpret it.
North Korea should definitely be watched very carefully. It can be said that North Korean government brainwashes its citizens with its media and there is no way to know if Kim Jong Un will be more aggressive with this tactic or with furthering N. Korea as a nuclear power.
ReplyDeleteWe don't have to worry about them for one simple reason: China. China is not going to let North Korea interfere with their global business adventures by doing something crazy and they have the military power to destroy North Korea easily..
ReplyDeleteI think I mentioned this to you already but you would need to either a) focus on songs or b) focus on artists. Either way, you would need more than one.
