PYONGYANG PATTY

For those who dont know. The North Korean equivalent to "Baghdad Bob". Only not widely known in the West because all of her tirades and humorous denials of reality are done on nightly DPRK TV in the Korean language.

(snip)... Born in Tongcheon, Gangwon Province in 1943, Ri has worked with microphone in hand for 37 years since graduating from the Pyongyang University of Dramatic and Cinematic Arts in February, 1971. "She grasps the hearts of viewers with her strong and appealing voice," the magazine gushed. "She strikes the enemies so severely that they have become dumbfounded when she announces statements and talks." North Korea's female news announcers enjoy the privilege of getting their hair styled at the country's best beauty salon, Changgwangwon in Pyongyang. Their hairstyles and clothes lead the country's fashions. They are also allowed opportunities to try on clothes made by the national clothing institute before anybody else.
