undercover reporting of what happens behind the curtain is evidence.
More importantly, the evidence is consistent with reports coming out of North Korea in the past year. Some news stories during that timeframe:
North Koreans fear the country is on the verge of a new famine - Times Online
Handling the Next North Korean Famine | Human Rights Watch
Asia Times Online :: Korea News and Korean Business and Economy, Pyongyang News
North Korea famine feared; China boosts border security
Local News | North Korea faces famine, aid groups say | Seattle Times Newspaper
The consistency of the evidence makes for a compelling argument that North Korea may either be heading into another famine or already in the midst of such a famine. Exact details will likely not be known for some time given the opaque nature of North Korea's communist regime and its adherence to "Juche" (self-reliance).
