How do you imagine a world without "propaganda"? Mine would be one without
this documentary.

It's propaganda about propaganda and it seems targeted at westerners. Too many
sensitive subjects for Dear Leader's flock.

The definition of "reality tee vee" given: shows about "talentless narcissists
who like to talk about themselves and go shopping".

This is the kind of material that has endeared North Korea to propaganda
cognoscenti everywhere.

The film was produced in New Zealand. Here is a link to a video report which
includes an interview with the producer:

Let's take a moment here and wonder a "documentary team" in a country with the
kind of dictatorial control that North Korea has would have access to so much
American TV footage.

"Leaked"? You mean "released by the North Korean government"?

If you read the back story the translator believes exactly that, which is to
say that the DPRK created it for westerners. What is interesting is that the
website its on has completely bought into the message. They say things like
"And jesus, is it on the f&k*g money."

That suggests that it was targeted exactly to the sort of non-critical
thinker/reader that the site "superchief" represents, and by all indications
manages to hit on all of the sensitive spots. That is the point of propaganda,
and whether it is anti-Semitic white supremacist crap or DPRK crap it requires
that the person reading it check their assumptions at the door.
