Fox probably has special access to North Korean radio and TV that nobody else has.

This is the Korean News Agency page http://www.kcna.co.jp/index-e.htm and the story is there (with all the other condolences stories). Unfortunately, the KNA isn't known for accuracy.

So without the verification from the other side (this would - should - never be done without US State Dept permission, as former Pres often serve as proxies) ... no story until so.

Whew, Im glad you cleared that up, glad he isnt that big of a jackwagon.
