Surprising or not, much of the "news" presented by the Japanese media is little more than recycled US government propaganda. News about the US, and that about many world affairs is essentially what you'd see on CNN and in the New York Times. In fact, I've read many newspaper articles in which these media's websites are actually cited! From what I can see, Japanese foreign correspondents in the US do little investigative work of their own, or at least their media don't present any information that contradicts the US mainstream media.

I just listened to a radio program in which the hosts called a Japanese correspondent in Washington and asked about the brouhaha over "The Path to 9/11." His description was just regurgitated from the US mainstream media. All the information on 9/11, Al-CAI-duh, and the war of terror is essentially the US government line. Quite some time ago there was a program on Japanese TV (hosted by an iconoclastic celebrity) which cast doubt on the official 9/11 story, but it was soon forgotten. I think foreigners in Japan paid more attention to it than Japanese viewers.
