North Korean Newscaster Fights Back Tears As She Reads Report Of Kim Jong Il’s Death

Kim Jong ll died on Saturday at age 69 from apparent heart failure. And although many Americans associate him with villainy and the Axis of Evil (through efforts by both George W. Bush and Team America), he was beloved by many in his country as their “Dear Leader.” He also reportedly spread the myth that he could control the weather with his moods.
