Comparing some of the Japanese "National Inquirer"esque media with Mainstream British media's Japanese report? Besides none of the J-media have ever gave constant bashing to one society in almost every known way to mankind like this society is under attack by foreign media.When will likes of Mcneil who nest around FCCJ admit that Japanese medias are "better" at least in the field of foreign report for having more balanced view and respect to the society where correspondents are stationed. I've always felt Mcneil's articles are biased. What does he mean by “Japan can play the game too”here?
