NHK's top is not neutral

Katsuto Momii, the director general of “NHK” had a debate with DPJ members yesterday. DPJ member criticized Momii that he made an inappropriate comments that NHK carefully considers how they broadcast the issues on the Comfort Women as the standpoint of the government is not yet clear. DPJ also criticized that Momii had no intention to withdraw his comments.

I think his comments and attitudes spoil the basic rule that NHK should be neutral on broadcasting. It is obvious that Momii is leaning forward to PM Abe’s stance. As long as Momii keeps his position at NHK, NHK will not be regarded as neutral broadcasting organization. He does not have credentials to be the top of NHK.
