Well they will apparently only be showing TV highlights of the football feast but only if they are victories for the North Korean football team in the World Cup and even then will be heavily edited.</p><div

id="more-645"></span> Now some of this is a little bit of western propaganda as I doubt North Korea could afford the television rights or the population could afford the satellite or cable television services. Mike Breen apparently told the Telegraph newspaper:</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;Like everything else there, the regime will have complete control over the World Cup. North Korea will not pay for the TV rights, which means they will not be able to screen live games on state television. They are more likely to get footage from South Korea and then it will be heavily edited to suit the regime. Only the ruling elite with access to other satellite channels will be able to watch games involving other countries.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>Ah Bring on the World Cup, my plasma television and beer fridge a both already prepared. What lcd or plasma TV will you be watching the World Cup from South Africa on? Will you be watching it at all? Use the comments below and let every one know.</p><div
