On Monday, BBC Reporter Rupert Wingfield-Hayes and his team arrived in Beijing after being expelled from North Korea.

During a trip to Pyongyang, the nation's capital, North Korean authorities deemed the BBC team's reporting “disrespectful” of both the country and its leadership. Wingfield-Hayes was detained and questioned for eight hours on Friday as he was about to leave the country.

Barbara Demick, a Los Angeles Times Correspondent and author of “Nothing to Envy: Ordinary Lives in North Korea," gives the latest details on the event, and analyzes the state of North Korean propaganda.
