Daily NK is a South Korean propaganda outlet funded by the National Endowment for Democracy, an offshoot of the CIA. It publishes articles in English, Chinese, and Korean. It's often used as a source by other Western bourgeois media outlets such as CNBC, CNN, Fox News, and The New York Times. Because Daily NK pays informants more for more sensational stories, even the South Korean government admits that it publishes a "flood of raw, unconfirmed reports."[1]
Funding[edit | edit source]
As early as 2011, Daily NK was receiving hundreds of thousands of US dollars per year from the United States government. One of Daily NK's biggest sponsors is the NED, which gave it nearly $2 million dollars between 2016 and 2020.[1]
