This is an outrage!
 
I demand NHK return Naoko Hashimoto to the 18:10 Shutoken Network newscast or I quit paying my license fees!!!!

You can still catch her on News 7 at Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays. :) News 7 is national broadcast, not just greater Tokyo metro area like Shutoken Network News, more exposure for her! :cool: And you like her because... :D ;)

More to the point, since the fees cannot be legally claimed, why pay? The programming here is such garbage anyway.

To quote the great 2-Belo, "Japanese TV is terrible. It's almost as bad as American TV."

I think NHK is actually really good programming-wise. It's the commercial networks that are >90% crap.

NHK is so good I refuse to pay their licensing fees. ;) A bit like a 5 foot kid at grammar school being seen as tall. Still a kid. Still awful TV. Unless reporting news counts ;)
