Ted Turner visits North Korea
2005-08-15
CNN founder Ted Turner arrived in the North Korean capital Pyongyang, North Korean official media reported.
I hear lil' Kim is quite the duffer.
"Robert Edward Turner, chairman of the Turner Foundation INC. of the United States, and his party ... arrived here," said the Korean Central News Agency, monitored here. South Korean officials said Turner was visiting the Stalinist state to discuss a project to turn the De-Militarized Zone (DMZ) dividing the two Koreas into a nature reserve.
Never mind those starving children... I bet a petting Zoo will do nicely in the DMZ.
He will visit an international environmental forum on the project here early next week, they said.
Good luck.

#10  What a waste of Mr. Turner's time. The DMZ is already a functioning nature preserve. It's the only place on the entire Korean peninsula where the animals can roam without fear of being crowded out or hunted, and the plant life has flourished undisturbed since the minefields were established. The only risk is to the very largest animals, who occasionally discover a mine the hard way.

#4  Maybe the Norks will keep him. Put him in the DMZ in the middle of all the land mines.

#1  Just when you start to forget what an evil fucker Turner can be...

Nature preserve. How... Godwinesque. Are they going to try to stock it with back-bred aurochs?
