North Korea’s foreign news service Uriminzokkiri targeted South Korean Yonhap News Agency newscaster Kim Jung with a string of harsh, sexist invective and insults late on Thursday.
This is not the first time North Korea has targeted South Korean women using degrading, gender-specific language in its national media. In May 2014 North Korean state media called South Korean President Park Geun-hye an “old prostitute,” while also labeling U.S. President Obama a "wicked black monkey."
