    CNN still counts as news? also who gives a shit what one guys opinion is. yes, there exists some fucked up anime ( I'm sure the guy is really thinking about hentai) out there, but for fuck sakes no REAL people or space monsters are involved in it. so in the real world it is in fact harmful to NO ONE. shit, you could make the case that it keeps those inclined to that sort of thing out of trouble.

    i mean shit, look at some of the most popular shows here in america and they have all sorts of fucked up stories and no one complains about them.

    for example, breaking bad. a teacher who turns to drugs, or dexter, a serial killer. drugs and a serial killer, most people don't say a friggen word about that, but anime is child porn? gimme a break.

    CNN is worse than Fox to be honest.

    Slow day for CNN I guess, seems like a shock article to get views. There was another xenophobic article a while back during the world cup about how Football (soccer) is un-patriotic or some retarded bullshit.

    They are all terrible, you have to take everything on the news with a huge pinch of salt.

    What else could one expect from the traditional American media? They're a persistent source of laughter for us outside the USA.

    They provide a good laugh for a lot here in the USA as well, fuck I find the Colbert Report more informative then all the other shit and it's comedy.

    OT: Yeah this CNN report is a load of shit, but that's just another day at any of these fucking news stations.

    No. You don't.

    What you're thinking of is how the Japanese pronounce it, yet what most people don't know is that it's not a Japanese word in the first place *thumbs up*.

    Their e and I's are very different from the English language in certain circumstances, this is one of those. While yes, you could argue that we should go with their pronunciation because it stems from there, the word itself does not, and if you're speaking in English and use the Japanese pronunciation, you're not being politically correct, you're just being misinformed.

    The guy who reported on this is a reporter living in Japan, I'm almost convinced he's doing this just for hits/views.

    Thank, CNN, for making me lose what little respect I had for you. I have to explain the different to people more often than I should have to, and this only makes it worse. Really? Tabloid tactics?
