Japan Media Review -- TV News in Japan: Reporting on Politics or Shaping it? (1449 words) |
 | By comparison, in 1985 TV Asahi, the Asahi News Network's (ANN) "key" station in Tokyo that was responsible for much of the national news for the network, had a total of 190 permanent employees and about 36 additional people who were contracted for services, with about 80 reporters covering the capital region. |
 | For example, the second largest newspaper, the Asahi Shimbun, which some consider the "paper of record" in Japan and the most liberal of the national papers, is partial owner of TV Asahi. |
 | TV Asahi executives felt that it was a mutual relationship of "sharing information." In other words, commercial stations, to at least some extent, rely on external sources, such as the national newspaper that partially owns it, to alert it to the potential "pool" of news stories that day. |
