Episode description

🎙️ Japan Today Spotlight: Is Japan’s media stuck in the past? Legacy broadcasters like NHK, Fuji TV and TBS once defined Japan’s national conversation. But in the digital age, they’re struggling to adapt — weighed down by rigid hierarchies, aging audiences and slow innovation. This episode explores why Japan’s biggest media outlets are falling behind, what’s keeping them from modernizing, and what it means for journalism’s future. 📰 Based on a Japan Today article by Jeff W. Richards: https://japantoday.com/category/features/opinions/japanese-media-giants-falling-behind-in-digital-age 📺 Watch the video version on YouTube:https://youtu.be/j0a2XB1E3bU
