I'm trying to think where I have heard of something like this, but I have to admit that I'm foxed.

Modeled on <a href="http:\/\/www.kcna.co.jp\/index-e.htm" target="_blank">North Korea</a>. Here's a translated sample:

<blockquote> Supreme leader Kim Jong Un's work "Let Us Step Up the Building of a Thriving Country by Applying Kim Jong Il's Patriotism" was brought out in booklet by a publishing house of Peru on January 16.

The work, made public on July 26, Juche 101(2012), clarifies the essence of Kim Jong Il's patriotism and his whole life characterized by his warm love for the country and its people.

It also clarifies important issues arising in embodying Kim Jong Il's patriotism. </blockquote>

Just change Kim Jong Un to Mike Pence and Kim Jong Il to Ronald Reagan.

What a rookie. St. Ronnie didn't even need to prepackage the news so as to get the papers to regurgitate the party line. He got the White House press to do that for him.

Good description of Pence. I expect the news outlet will be fairly balanced between 'gushing' and 'sycophantic'.
