Love Trump’s response - “We have a good relationship with North Korea” yet you don’t know if the country’s leader is even alive?

Reports coming in stating Kim Jong Un, Leader of North Korea has died as a result of complications from heart surgery.
As always, verifying news from within North Korea is an extremely difficult task. News from earlier in the week stating he was in hospital is yet to be confirmed, just shows how news in relation to North Korea should always be taken with a grain of salt.

Japanese Media is saying he is in a “vegetative state,” other sources saying he has Coronavirus - so confusing…

Whatever has/has not happened, we will most likely find out in the months ahead. Very hard to extract verified information from North Korea.

Unless it is announced on state television, which IIRC is what happened upon Kim Jong-Il’s death

Since the summer bushfires thread has been closed, I will post this here.
This is not the outcome that Celeste Berber or many of the donors are looking for. I reckon the problem is that Celeste didn’t clearly check the beneficiary when she raised the appeal. Now that $50 million raised will stay with the RFS forever, unfortunately.

I found this article overnight interesting. Are we witnessing the resurgence of the traditional evening news bulletin?
A recent surge in the evening-news audience may lend the people who build the broadcasts new conviction. In a different era, one of TV’s biggest and most stable audiences faithfully tuned in the evening news as a sort of daily ritual. As more people stay at home due to the pandemic, a sense has emerged that the format is serving modern audiences in a similar way. “I think we are seeing a revival with the evening news,” says Bob Schieffer, the longtime CBS News anchor who led both “CBS Evening News” and “Face The Nation” for periods of time. “It’s kind of a touchstone for people.”
