Korea Central News Agency (KCNA) attacked Mr Obama and also South Korean President Park Geun-hye after Obama's visit two-day visit to Seoul last month.
Blogger Josh Stanton translated the pieces – originally in Korean – which almost escaped notice as the KCNA had not had them transcribed into English. The article, published on May 2, described Mr Obama as a "clown" and a "dirty fellow" while saying "he does not even have the basic appearances of a human being".
The racist tirade continued with the mouthpiece of the Pyongyang government stating: "He is a crossbreed with unclear blood" and Obama "Still has the figure of monkey while the human race has evolved through millions of years". It continued: "It would be perfect for Obama to live with a group of monkeys in the world’s largest African natural zoo and lick the bread crumbs thrown by spectators."
The White House publicly condemned the abuse and National Security Council spokeswoman Caitlin Hayden said: "While the North Korean Government-controlled media are distinguished by their histrionics, these comments are particularly ugly and disrespectful." A dailystar.co.uk report.
