Embarrassment for NBC News after Lester Holt apparently falls for North Korean propaganda. Well, he falls for all the DNC propaganda so what’s new? Even NBC called BS on Lester’s BS.
“Who produced this garbage?” asked an NBC insider. “It is field producing 101 — don’t do a standup somewhere that’s been staged by a dictatorial regime.”

Wonder if Lester got any great video of people foraging for food?
In a huge garbage dump, which is where the poor and the children have to go to find something to eat.
NBC was just trying to make Trump look bad.
'Hey, look at us, we got a negro into NK and he was able to have fun. Trump can't even get them to answer the phone.' This goes all the way to the top of NBC, they just didn't expect to get called on their own BS.
This will certainly take everyone's mind off Matt Lauer...they hope.
Now, now, Lestor Holt is only required to read from a teleprompter and look pretty. There is nothing in his job description requiring knowledge, or for that matter, a brain.
NBC and the rest of the MSN let Clinton and Obama do it. So a dictatorial country is no different for them.
The news media has been running interference for murderous dictators a long time.
NYT Walter Duranty, for Stalin's famine.
CNN for Sadam Hussein and all of media for the Palestinian Authority.
NBC News should be listed in Webster's dictionary as part of the definition for embarrassment.
Poor Lester Dolt - I mean Holt. Stuck in a Truman Show and doesn't even realize it. Maybe next week he can rock a Pot Belly Pig doo for our entertainment.
