North Korean propaganda chief who served all three leaders dies

SEOUL (Reuters) - Kim Ki Nam, one of the longest-serving North Korean officials who served all three generations of its leaders cementing their political legitimacy and heading the propaganda apparatus for the dynastic state, has died, official media said on Wednesday.

North Korea leader Kim Jong Un visited the bier of Kim at 2 a.m. on Wednesday to pay tribute "with bitter grief over the loss of a veteran revolutionary who had remained boundlessly loyal" to the country until the very end, it said.
