Using NHK’s “Watch 9” coverage of Aegis Ashore as its point of departure, this essay harshly questions how Japan’s postwar media have trampled their own press ethics code and turned even national defense itself into a target of attack.
Drawing on insights associated with Susumu Nishibe, it sharply denounces the NHK news division, Asahi-style discourse, and the deceit of anti-authority democracy.

Chapter 2 (b) of the “Press Code of Ethics” that they themselves created: “In reporting the news, a reporter must never insert his personal opinion.”

I was half-watching NHK’s Watch 9 just now, and this must be what it means to be utterly sickened, to feel like vomiting, or to be so appalled that one is left speechless.
Under the current Constitution, which GHQ created and handed to Japan in order to weaken this country permanently, the Ministry of Defense of Japan decided to deploy Aegis Ashore in Yamaguchi and Akita, a measure that is hardly an exaggeration to call the only means of protecting Japan from North Korean missile attacks…because that would make it possible to cover all of Japan.
As for the attitude being shown in response by the people of Akita, fellow Northerners…
I in fact feel a rage so intense that my hair stands on end.
If you do not want it, then Osaka will take it…that is what I would like to shout at them…
But Osaka cannot cover all of Japan, and so I had been gnashing my teeth in frustration.
Yet the descendants of Chongryon and people like Chinese agents, or Communist elements, who dominate NHK’s news division…
began pompously broadcasting at length on the fully controlled Watch 9 that a problem had also arisen in Yamaguchi…and when I watched, wondering what on earth had happened…
it turned out that the stated elevation was off by 2 meters.
Just 2 meters.
It had been listed as 576 meters, but according to data from the Geospatial Information Authority of Japan it was 574 meters.…Google Earth uses values measured by satellite, so discrepancies do occur…
What possible problem could this 2-meter difference create in defending Japan?
NHK was attacking the Ministry of Defense as though this were a major incident and a grave problem.
As usual, the people being mobilized by the Communist Party, the opposition parties, China, and forces from the Korean Peninsula are elderly people…
people weak in information who subscribe to newspapers like the Asahi Shimbun and watch only NHK’s reporting…
people who have been taught that being anti-authority is the true form of democracy…
and no small number of them are people who cannot even properly raise their own children…
people for whom there is no end to examples of killing police officers or killing children.
The characteristic of these people is, in any case, to complain about the state…
It is an incurable petty arrogance and childishness in which they believe that the country is wrong and they themselves are right.
Such reporting…
NHK’s Watch 9, which devotes long stretches of time to this before a House of Councillors election…
How long are we going to keep allowing it to continue…
On a state broadcaster…
There is nowhere else in the world where a country repeatedly allows attacks on its own government to be broadcast against what is the only means of defending the nation from the assaults of a deranged fascist state.
They have, for example, trampled underfoot time and again, beyond counting, the fact taught in the following book by the late Susumu Nishibe, one of the great men produced by postwar Japan…namely Chapter 2 (b) of the “Press Code of Ethics” that they themselves created: “In reporting the news, a reporter must never insert his personal opinion.”
The viciousness of the above-mentioned people who dominate NHK’s news division lies in the fact that they coined the meaningless word “caster”…
and calmly insist that because NHK employees, who are unmistakably part of a news organization…
are not reporters but “casters,” they may say whatever they like.…
I will discuss this later.…Why has Japan become a “base country”?
