"There are those that learn by reading. Then a few who learn by observation. The rest have to piss on an electric fence and find out for themselves!"- Will Rogers
Agreed, that was about the lamest line of bullshit I've read this week. Now they're going to edit the cultures of other countries in order not to upset the delicate sensibilities of locals? Grow some fucking balls and open your minds already, Japan. The purpose of such TV is to educate and inform, so deal with it or go back to your idiot, shinjiaranai variety programs.
In the beginning the universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move - Douglas Adams
I know its usual at this point to mention that the same people wailing in public about declining Japanese morals will usually buy tickets to see the likes of Paul McCartney, the Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton et al but its not as if all Japanese are condemned for drugs. I've never seen a bad word said about self-confessed acid tripper Keiichi Tanaami who still picks up major corporate projects. I guess he gets a pass because he was hanging out with Warhol and "officially" only took LSD overseas.
at least they're straight up about it in the middle east. japan needs to quit pretending they're open minded and just start censoring the shit out of everything.
