South Korea Stops Decades-Old Propaganda Broadcast Into North
South Korea has suspended decades-old radio broadcasts into North Korea in its latest move to ease tensions, marking a symbolic win for Pyongyang by cutting off a rare source of uncensored information for its citizens.
South Korea's presidential office said on Wednesday the radio broadcasts have been suspended 'for some time now,' saying such a move is better than witnessing inter-Korean ties deteriorating. That confirmed a recent report by the 38 North program at the Stimson Center that said that four radio stations believed to have been operated by South Korea's National Intelligence Service went silent in early July.
