Network is a luxury, how foreign journalists in Pyongyang reported? -North Korea, journalists-IT information
North Korea′s leader, Kim Jong-UN is going through his political career of one of the most celebrated political activities. Meanwhile, the ruling Labor Party after 36 years after the reconvened National Convention (the "big six", in 1980).
Like other nation-wide events (such as the annual Pyongyang Marathon) or basketball (such as former NBA star Dennis Rodman attended basketball games), this North States 130 journalists were invited to cover.
Although North Korea seems to be willing to overseas tourist enterprise to its domestic operations, as well as to a limited number of foreign student visas, but reporters could not ask prison-related problems, or interviews with ordinary North Koreans.
World-wide are eager for information about North Korea. So, admitted to reporters how the detailed investigation of the reported demands and comply with regulations hold balance?
As the BBC this week, the Washington Post and Reuters said, describing the country as "the reclusive country" and "repressed countries" is fine, but you can′t quote banned interviewer.
Martyn Williams is the Chief Editor of the Korea Science and technology network, which was founded more than 20 years, focused on North Korea′s dynamic United States blog site. He explained that the reports about North Korea is the most critical step in a delicate balance – at the same time, we need to remember that North Korean propaganda may not be so complicated that we can imagine.
"Reception staff in North Korea makes it easy for the photographer to delete they don′t like some of the pictures, of course, they are delighted to have video journalists capturing moments of they are not willing to, for example, block the camera with his hand. "He said.
Critical report? He suggested that the best return.

When it comes to reporting challenges in North Korea, the Washington Post reporter Anna Fifield wrote: "after receiving the North Korean visas, I am very excited ... ... But, you know, when we get there, I′m so upset, because you will find that you are the real world version of Truman. ”
Fifield is one of the few journalists arrived in Pyongyang this week, she used the Internet (surprising is that Korean network is quite fast), on Twitter to share snapshots of North Korea.
Here is now that we can information:
Starting from airport reports
Visa may be hard to get, but some people think that is the most difficult to fly to North Korea this time: Air Koryo, North Korea′s State-owned airline, has been voted the world′s worst airline 4 times in a row.
In addition, the scene at the airport where the evidence is they rarely travel, as can be seen from the lounge.
BBC journalist Rupert Wingfield-Hayes to use "seems to be a smooth landing in the world′s most closed, the poorest and most repressed countries" to launch the first report.
North Korea′s erratic visa procedures have been United States band the Fugees rapper Pras, and feminist Gloria Steinem learned, the BBC reported, three Nobel Prize winners and Prince Alfred of Liechtenstein again proved this point.

Fifield also noted, it was to a big-screen TV set checked--estimates are not used to Western DVD′s, it wasn′t allowed.

Every Government
As with all foreign visitors to North Korea, accompanied by reporters in the absence of North Korean receptionist was not free to go out and, therefore, all ordinary North Koreans interviewed allowed to demonstrate fully embrace isolation advocated by the Government, this result is not surprising.
On Wednesday, the BBC journalists and a group of students met Kim Il-Sung University in Pyongyang, these students praised their countries.
When a student asked about nuclear weapons when he answers with the official government propaganda exactly the same caliber: the United States and Korea is trying to destroy North Korea required nuclear plants to protect themselves.
A few days ago, Wingfield-Hayes tried to interview two people watched in the hospital, they may not be allowed to interview and ran quickly away.
A slice of life
Other journalists use the Internet to share the Administration stands ready to let the world see the fragment of Korean people′s daily life: from the day-care center in the capital (the hosting parents work during the day to children in day care centers, and back again in the evening) to the streets, and only allows the elite to live here.

--Twitter@annafifield,2016, May 4
Although for some Korean residents are familiar with the scene, but no one can use them to share on a social network.
Williams said that only a few people could use the Internet, and these elite can use domestic Web sites are operated by the official network.
The revolutionary celebration
Citizens for "seven" was busy. United States Korean news reports that North Korea′s major broadcasting media Korean Central News Agency issued a report, entire article is filled with "fight" and "victory" and "success" and "revolution", the word, repeat more than 100 times.
For Friday′s Labor Party seven, the girls are rehearsing red flag dance.
It is clear that foreign journalists to the Korean receptionist was issued instructions to use the same, so the outside hoping to learn from their stories to what?
Williams said: "Although freedom of movement is limited, the information is controlled, but no more so than living in North Korea be able to understand this country. ”
"Journalist observed, the inherent truth more, although only a little bit, we can do more detailed reports will to grasp the real situation outside of the official propaganda. ”
网络是奢侈品，外国记者是如何在朝鲜平壤发报道的？ - 朝鲜,记者 - IT资讯
朝鲜领导人金正恩正在经历他政治生涯中最盛大的一次政治活动。同时，这也是执政的劳动党时隔36年后再次召开全国代表大会（“六大”于1980年召开）。
像其他的举国盛事（如一年一度的平壤马拉松）或篮球比赛（例如NBA前球星罗德曼参加的篮球比赛）一样，这次朝鲜也邀请了各国的130名记者前往报道。
尽管朝鲜似乎很乐意海外旅游企业到其国内开展业务，以及给少数外国学生发放签证，但记者们却不能询问与监狱相关的问题，或者采访朝鲜普通民众。
全世界都很渴望获得朝鲜的相关信息。那么，获准入境报道的记者们如何在详细调查的需求和遵守当局规定之间把握平衡呢？
正如本周BBC、《华盛顿邮报》和路透社报道所说，将这个国家描述为“隐遁的国家”和“压抑的国家”都是可以的，但你不能引述被禁止采访者的话。
Martyn Williams是朝鲜科技网的主编，这是一家成立20多年，专门关注朝鲜动态的美国博客网站。他解释说，关于朝鲜的报道最关键的就是踩在一个微妙的平衡点上——同时，我们要记住，朝鲜的宣传机构可能没有我们想象中那么复杂。
“在朝鲜接待人员们很容易让摄影师删除他们不喜欢的某些图片，当然，他们也会愉快地让录像记者抓拍他们不乐意的瞬间，比如用手遮挡摄像头。”他这样说道。
想发表批评性的报道？他建议，最好等回国后吧。
▲朝鲜的接待人员给了我一个“记者”袖章——好像如果我不戴着这个袖章，就能在平壤掩人耳目。
——@annafifield，2016年5月4日
说到在朝鲜报道的挑战，《华盛顿邮报》的记者Anna Fifield写道：“获得朝鲜的签证后，我非常的兴奋……然而，到了以后，我非常生气，因为你会发现，你正身处现实版的《楚门的世界》。”
Fifield是本周到达平壤的少数记者之一，她利用网络（令人惊讶的是，朝鲜的网络还挺快），在Twitter上分享了朝鲜的快照。
以下就是目前为止我们所能获得的信息：
从机场开始报道
签证或许很难拿到，不过有些人觉得去朝鲜最难的就是坐飞机的这段时光：高丽航空是朝鲜的国有航空公司，已经连续4次被评为全球最差航空公司。
另外，机场的场景也是他们极少旅行的证据所在，从候机室就可以看出。
BBC记者Rupert Wingfield-Hayes就用“似乎平稳着陆在世界上最闭塞、最穷困和最压抑的国度”来展开第一篇报道。
朝鲜反复无常的签证程序已被美国the Fugees乐队的说唱歌手Pras以及女权主义者Gloria Steinem领教过，此次BBC报道团、三位诺贝尔奖获得者和列支敦斯登的阿尔弗雷德王子再次证明了这一点。

Fifield还注意到，有人给一台大屏电视机办托运手续——估计不是用来看西方DVD的，这是不允许的。
这个人正在给一台65寸的索尼电视办托运，准备乘坐高丽航空由北京飞往平壤的航班。

每个人都拥护政府
正如所有到朝鲜的外国游客，记者们在没有朝鲜接待人员的陪同下是不能随便外出的，因此，所有允许接受采访的朝鲜普通民众都表现出全力拥护政府的孤立主张，这个结果也并不让人意外。
星期三，BBC的记者们与一群学生在平壤金日成大学见面，这群学生赞美他们的国家。
当一名学生被问及关于核武器的看法时，他的回答与政府官方宣传口径如出一辙：美国和韩国正试图消灭朝鲜，因此需要核工厂来自卫。
几天前，Wingfield-Hayes试图采访两名在医院旁观的民众，他们可能没有获准接受采访，于是飞快地跑开。
生活的片段
其他记者利用网络分享了当局乐意让世界看到的朝鲜人民日常生活片段：从首都的日托中心（白天上班的父母将小孩儿托管在日托中心，晚上再接回）到街道，这里只允许精英阶层居住。

——Twitter@annafifield，2016年5月4日
尽管这对于一些朝鲜普通居民来说是很熟悉的场景，但没人能够将这些图片分享到社交网络上。
据Williams说，只有少数人能使用网络，而且这些精英阶层能使用的国内网站只不过是由官方运作的局域网。
革命性的庆祝活动
民众们都在为“七大”忙碌着。美国朝鲜新闻网报道称，朝鲜主要的广播宣传媒体朝鲜中央通讯社发表一篇报道，通篇充斥着“战斗”、“胜利”、“成就”和“革命”等词，分别重复了100多次。
为了周五的劳动党七大，女孩们正在排练红旗舞。
很明显，外国记者的朝鲜接待人员都被下达了指示，要使用同一口径，那么外界还指望能从他们的报道中了解到什么呢？
Williams说：“尽管行动自由是被限制的，所得到的信息被管控，但是没有比身处朝鲜更能够了解这个国家的了。”
“记者观察到的内在实情越多，尽管只有一点点，我们能做的报道就越详尽，以掌握官方宣传以外的真实情况。”
