Current TV and N.Korea

I'm not sure why Current TV hasn't yet come up in class, but it's like a more rigorous, intelligent and political You Tube founded, at least in part by Al Gore (he did invent the internet). This travelogue of two of the few Americans ever allowed in North Korea is particularly appropriate for our class touching on many themes; new media, documentaries, international relations and vBlogs.
