"subjective"? Or "objective"?

Hi,everyone!Last class, we discussed whether the mass media in Japan is "subjective" or "objective".


It's a difficult topic because both of them are included. For example, NHK is tend to stand at "objective". I often watched NHK news. Although news anchors sometimes show their thoughts,all of programs except for variety shows only broadcast the facts of incidents I feel.


But on the other hand, FujiTV or TBS incline to air programs occupied "subjective" opinions or something.Through out this class, I deliberated which is the best for people.


But,I was not able to decide it...lol



However, the most important point I think is that we have to try to have our own opinions and ability to evaluate what is the truth through out both of elements which are "sujective"and "objective".

  1. Hi Nukky,

    Some interesting thoughts there, and I think both types of reporting/newscasters are required. The most important thing is that we are aware of bias and can see through it.

    I wonder if you could add a video which helps you to illustate your point? I'm sure there's something on youtube. I'd also like to know more about why Fuji TV and TBS are classified as giving 'subjective' opinions.

    Good blog entry!

    RW.
