Japan’s NHK under fire after ‘broadcast hijacking’ by Chinese reporter over Diaoyu Islands
Releasing the report at a press conference in Tokyo on Tuesday, NHK President Nobuo Inaba said the incident was a “case of broadcast hijacking”.
“It is an extremely serious situation that violated NHK’s own international programme standards and NHK failed to fulfil its responsibility as stipulated by the Broadcasting Act, which we take very seriously,” Inaba said. “We once again offer our profound apologies.”
