Imperialists′ False Propaganda and Psywar Flayed
Pyongyang, April 2 (KCNA) -- The world media should see through the sinister aims sought by the U.S. and other imperialists through false propaganda and psywar and not be played into their hands, urges Rodong Sinmun Saturday in a bylined article.
The unceasing smear campaigns against the socialist countries and anti-imperialist and independent countries are a basic mode of the imperialists′ false propaganda and psywar, the article says, and goes on:
The U.S. laid a dense media network worldwide, taking a firm hold on many information means. It even laid down principles guiding its smear campaigns against the above-said countries. Acting upon these rules, the reptile media in the U.S. have consistently conducted false propaganda against those countries while making profound confusion of right and wrong.
It is another mode of the imperialists′ false propaganda and psywar to heap praises on the Western world and capitalism.
The U.S. sharply increased entertainment programs for youth in their broadcasting services, keeping in mind the fact that not a small number of them are more interested in pop songs and entertainment than politics. It makes them include stories praising the "advantages" of U.S.-style capitalist system in those programs.
Its ulterior intention is to implant U.S.-style "view on value" into the minds of youth in the respective regions before their outlooks on the world are fully shaped.
The another aim sought by the U.S. and other imperialists through their false propaganda and psywar is to bring down all the socialist countries in the world just as what they did in the East European countries and Americanize and Westernize the anti-imperialist and independent countries.
The imperialist forces′ false propaganda and psywar is also aimed to justify their moves to stifle the anti-imperialist and independent countries and lay an international siege to those countries.
