Yasukuni Shrine and
bias American news media
Prime Minister Shinzo Abe of Japan visited the Yasukuni
Shrine in Tokyo, Japan, resulting in the governments of South Korea and China
complaining. These two governments hallucinate
they have the authority to restrict freedom of movement by the Japanese in
Japan.
The bellyaching by the South Korean and Chinese government
made world-wide news. The American news
media in keeping with their bias reporting joined the fray. The Dallas Morning News reprinted an article
from The Washington Compost (The Washington Post), and titled it:
“Japan’s rivals rip visit to war shrine”
One mistake: That
Yasukuni Shrine is not a “war shrine” it is a shrine “Dedicated to those who
lost their lives while serving Japan.”
The Dallas Morning News inserted the “war shrine” purposely to defame
the shrine. The title to the article leads
one to believe the shrine honors war, when it fact it does not.
From the Yasukuni Shrine website:
“Yasukuni Shrine was established to commemorate and honor
the achievement of those who dedicated their precious lives for their country.
The name ‘Yasukuni,’ given by the Emperor Meiji represents wishes for
preserving peace of the nation.”
Although The Dallas Morning News is one newspaper in the
United States, it is a glowing example of the bias news media in the USA. Their role is not to report the news but to
shape the news and mold public opinion.
