What surprises me is that foreign correspondents are still allowed to
transmit reports via satellite back to the US, Britain, and other
countries. There were via-satellite transmissions on TV yesterday and
this morning. How long will this be permitted to continue?


This is not unusual. They aren't all that interested in cutting off the rest
of the world, only their own people. Cuba does much the same, as does China.
About the only country controlled tightly enough that almost nothing enters
or leaves is the DPRK.
