They reported that the liberal Kim Jong Il allegedly scored 11 holes in one on his very first time playing golf [1]. This apparent dramatic praise (actually blatant sarcasm) of the liberal Kim has caused some conservative commentators to characterise ESPN as a far left and inherently unreliable organisation. [2].
