Still, Mondays comments from the General Staff of the Korean Peoples Army contained an unusually specific mention of the longitude and latitude of the locations of seven media outlets. North Korea said it had targeted those agencies and would attack if Seoul doesnt apologize for orchestrating a vicious smear campaign against the festivals in the Norths capital.
In Seoul, the Unification Ministry, which handles relations with the North, called the statement a grave provocation.

Gosh, this calls for courage. Send in all the alphabet newsgroups, in our country, to defend SKorean media groups. Fuel the planes, put our alphabet newsgroups on board. Arm them, with free pens and paper. Send maddie not-so-bright too.
Given the NK’s prowess in rocketry, those “specific coordinates” will be given with a tolerance of plus/minus 5000 km.

LOL! Sorry, I’m having a hard time being upset at them for this one!
Yep. If their missiles are coming, they should comes in dozens to do the job. N. Korea knows that. I mean, if they fire one and it lands a mile away from intended targets, it would very embarrassing, whether it managed to wreak havoc or not.
I understand why you included the first one. As for the other two, do you have something against Nassau County and Queens ?
There a little good in everyone.

Might there be a transcription error? I thought I provided the Norks with the coordinates to the HQs of the Washington Post, CBS and ABC News.
Ok, this is a James Bond movie coming to life, right? The one where that media mogul is trying for - what else - world dominance? In this step he is threatening to take out the competition.
These little pissant dictators are so tiresome.
Someone needs to call them out, bitch slap them around in public and dare them to do something about it after showing them footage of Nagasaki or Hiroshima and letting them know we have a few of these laying around we can afford to do without.
I must admit an occasional (resisted) desire to launch artillery at certain media groups.
OK. I got you.:-)
When will the press stop airing the rants from delusional leaders like the NK and Iranian mini-men?
It doesn’t surprise me.
