At the JT: Senior NHK manager’s denial of Nanjing Massacre not a problem: SugaA senior NHK manager who denied any massacre at Nanjing during the 1930s did nothing wrong, government officials said Tuesday, as another storm brewed over the integrity of the national broadcaster.
Naoki Hyakuta, one of a 12-strong management committee responsible for programming policy and budget-setting at the publicly-funded broadcaster, dismissed as “propaganda” the accounts of the 1937-38 orgy of murder and rape by Japanese troops as they rampaged through China.“Countries in the world ignored the propaganda produced (by then-Chinese leader Chiang Kai-shek) . . . that Japan’s troops carried out a massacre in Nanjing. Why? There was no such thing,” Hyakuta said during a speech...[/quote]
The reactionary asswipe on NHK's management committee, Naoki Hyakuta, has been kicked off ("retired") from the board: http://mainichi.jp/select/news/20150131 ... 9000c.html (in Japanese)
UPDATE: The Japan Times report: http://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2015/0 ... -february/
The government will soon submit to the Diet a list of candidates to replace Hyakuta and three other governors whose terms are also due to expire at the end of February. Upon approval from both chambers of the Diet, the prime minister will appoint their successors to the NHK committee.

NHK filter gives viewers ‘legal’ way to avoid Japan’s TV tax
Kakeya says he came up with the idea for the device after witnessing NHK neglect its legal duty to uphold political neutrality, a threat, he says, to democracy. Article 4 of the Broadcast Law states NHK must be “politically impartial.”
