No, he is acknowledging he doesn't know anything about North Korea because he only has 2 completely unreliable sources.

You know even less because you don't even have a second source, and lack the critical thinking to realize it.

To clarify: I have certain expectations that I hold a socialist country to. The best case scenario would be that the DPRK meets all my expectations and is a socialist paradise. I have no belief that the DPRK does or does not meet those expectations.
