As a result of accidentally leaving the program on, I watched NHKBS1's "International News" for the first time in a long time and was stunned.
To my dismay, the male presenter was giving an unbelievable report on the origin of the Wuhan virus, giving China's ridiculous claim.
He said that the cause was the conflict between China and the United States.
He put China and the U.S. on the same level regarding the origin of the virus and commented that the international community needs to investigate both countries jointly.
It was a genuinely astounding statement.
Before I saw this comment, I had just read the Introduction to "Red Japan" by Yoshiko Sakurai, which I purchased today.
It's no exaggeration to say that this anchor and the Komeito that Ms. Sakurai points out are the same.
There is nothing more ridiculous than the fact that NHK, which is, in effect, Japan's state-run broadcaster, is a broadcaster that speaks for China, just like the Japanese branch of China Television.
