LeBron, If America Does Not Love You, Why Has It Given You Astronomical Pay and the Status of a Hero?
This article questions LeBron James’s reported remark, “Why doesn’t this country love us?” by pointing out that American society has rewarded him with astronomical earnings and the status of a national sports hero.
It also criticizes NHK’s editorial stance, the false moralism of wealthy celebrities, and propaganda intended to divide and weaken the United States.

LeBron, If America Does Not Love You, Why Has It Given You Astronomical Pay and the Status of a Hero?
I once watched NHK’s Sunday Sports without fail, but, as with News Watch 9, I now hardly ever watch it.
Last night, I switched to the program because I wanted to know the results of the women’s golf tournament and because it is the earliest program to report the day’s sports results.
At a certain point, however, I was so appalled that I immediately changed the channel.
There can be no doubt that Ogoshi is now one of the people controlling NHK’s news division.
Ogoshi and Jun Azumi of the Constitutional Democratic Party, who is a disgrace to Miyagi Prefecture, joined their respective organizations at almost the same time and are friends, while Arima is three years their junior.
This line now controls NHK’s news division.
Its appalling nature is exactly as I have repeatedly described.
While presenting News Watch 9, Ogoshi categorically declared that Japan had forcibly taken Koreans to Japan, and he was subsequently removed from the program.
He also broadcast the truly ridiculous assertion that he sincerely respected Kang Sang-jung.
Ogoshi was probably removed because the NHK president at the time was Momii, who possessed a reasonable understanding of how Japan’s public broadcaster should conduct itself.
For that very reason, Momii was continually attacked in the Diet by foolish opposition politicians.
Momii’s failing was that he took those opposition politicians seriously, confronted them in a combative manner, and created the impression that he was someone better left outside the world of officialdom.
As a result, he lost support and was replaced by the current president, Maeda.
The present reality of NHK’s news division is probably that Ogoshi has returned to power and is exercising influence from behind the scenes.
I had thought quite highly of the female announcer from Aomori who presents the sports coverage on Saturdays and Sundays, but even she has now greatly diminished in my estimation.
I regard Ogoshi as a disgrace to the people of Tohoku.
He uses the apparent simplicity and sincerity associated with the people of Tohoku as a disguise, concealing a mind shaped by reading the Asahi Shimbun—a mind filled with a self-denigrating view of Japanese history, anti-Japanese thinking, false moralism, and pro-China and pro-Korea sympathies.
In other words, he is the worst kind of scoundrel.
The reason I immediately changed the channel last night was that, as soon as a special feature began, the program displayed a caption quoting LeBron James as having said, although I know nothing whatsoever about the context in which he said it, “Why doesn’t this country love us?”
It was the ultimate expression of false moralism, comparable to that of Hollywood celebrities who receive exorbitant appearance fees.
LeBron, if America does not love you, it would not continue paying you a salary so enormous that you could never spend it all, no matter how many times you were reborn.
On the contrary, you would have been worked mercilessly for a meagre wage.
America would never have treated you as a hero comparable to Michael Jordan.
When I was a golf fanatic, I happened to encounter Michael Jordan at Kapalua on the island of Maui.
He played eighteen holes in the group immediately ahead of mine.
Five highly skilled white golfers from the course joined him, forming an unusual group of six.
Anyone who loves golf knows that Jordan also demonstrated his extraordinary natural talent on the golf course.
He was a hero among heroes.
To be continued.
LeBron, if you sincerely believe what you said, immediately donate at least half of your astronomical annual income to impoverished Black communities.
Had you done so, I might have overlooked your foolish remarks.
LeBron, you should also realize that you are one of the fools being manipulated by Chinese propaganda intended to divide and weaken the United States.
