CCTV FOLLIES July 9 12PM
The 11 AM news cycle oddly omits any mention of Japan, but the international coverage does include a long section on Ukraine, giving some voice to the Ukraine side. It doubles down on US for weapons dumping.
But something's up as the clock strikes 12

News 30 will give the firmest report on Abe to date because they now have correct guidance from the top.
The leader has spoken.

CCTV's "news heavy" 7 AM news slot has half an hour of reports on pressing international topics such as how US military aid to Ukraine is fueling the flames of the fire, and then at 7:34 there is a three-minute segment on the assassination of Shinzo Abe, his life and death.

There is a brief standup in front of Nara police station where a police press conference is taking place
Die beim Anschlag auf #Abe verwendete "Schusswaffe" war augenscheinlich im Prinzip eine simple Sprengvorrichtung,bei der zwei Ladungen nebeneinander platziert waren und durch die "Läufe" eine gewisse Führung für vorgeladene Splitter boten 1/x
Die vorgeladenen Splitter wirkten dabei ähnlich wie bei einer Richtmine,was dann auch die bestialische Verletzungswirkung trotz des offensichtlich geringen Gasdrucks erklärt

In #Japan wird am Sonntag das Oberhaus gewählt. Bei einem Wahlkampfauftritt wurde vor wenigen Stunden der ehemalige Premier Shinzo #Abe angeschossen, soeben wurde sein Tod verkündet. /MS br.de/nachrichten/de…
Der Tatverdächtige im Mord an Shinzo #Abe soll ein 41-jähriger ehemaliger Soldat sein. /MS zeit.de/politik/auslan…
It's a shocking news!
#Abe is very popular & prominent politician in #Japan.
Indeed, gun violence is extremely rare incident in a country that has the world's strictest gun laws.

PM #Modi’s body language with France’s President is very different. With other leaders he is seen passing jokes and hugging, but with Macron he shares a diff chemistry. The videos will show it more clearly! I have noticed the same vibe when he’s with #MBZ (UAE’s president).
Adding Netanyahu (Israel) and Abe (Japan) to the list. Its a lil diff with the current leaders of the same countries.
Go ahead rate PM Modi’s bonding with others. Rate them out of 10

I have been curious about the changes to ICU capacity capacity. The weekly data captured at healthdata.gov/sites/default/……… now shows data through the week of 12/11. At first blush, the data doesn't appear to have changed much since the prior week. 1/n
2/n The aspect I am most curious about is the reporting of the data. An example of this is in reporting of ICU beds available and used. See below for one PA example: It is confusing to see the beds at this facility change during the weeks of 10/2 and 9/18 #covid #hospitals
3/n In contrast, note the reporting at this alternative #Pennsylvania hospital: While the average total #ICU beds increase slightly during the two most recent weeks, in contrast with the prior example, this hospital shows a percentage used < 100%. #LehighValley #ABE #Bethlehem
TRUMP “lost” elections, NETANYAHU’s govt “collapsed” last night, not difficult to guess who they r coming after next? #FarmersProtest ws created to target MODI ji. In Japan, #Abe hs already bn “discharged”. They will target #UK & #Australia next. @WarHorizon patience testing!!!
Early in the morning the 1st thing that flashed on my screen ws Netanyahu’s name. He gotta be careful. Around the world, leaders who believed in bringing abt a change r being taken down by hook or crook.
I prolly got it wrong. UK hs already bn targeted. New mutant B117 virus found its way into UK. In India they r causing internal agitations,borders will soon b on fire coz they knw Modi hs ppl’s support. Not having his frens lead other countries will mk things difficult 4 Modi ji.
Mein Take on #RCEP:
1. (& am wichtigsten): 🇨🇳 hat gezeigt, dass es in einem plurilateralen Abkommen anschlussfähig ist.

1/30 In two forthcoming pieces, I examine #Japan's response to the #COVID19 #coronavirus #pandemic. I'll summarize the main non-theoretical points here (long thread alert!).
2/30 #Japan’s figures have always looked good compared to many other countries, which initially led to suspicion that the ‘real’ numbers of #COVID19 #coronavirus infections & death were being played down.
3/30 #Tokyo Metropolitan Government at least has now released full #COVID19 figures, including general death rates, seeming to put this argument to rest (but these figures are also now being challenged). japantimes.co.jp/news/2020/05/0…

Live from Japan right now! What the American media won’t tell you. President Trump’s visit to Japan is being well recieved and going very well. #Japan #Trump #Abe #Japan Meeting
President Trump for the first time in Japan’s history presented the President’s award to the grand champion sumo wrestler. Sumo is a scared national sport in Japan, daring hundreds of years. Japan made POTUS special slippers to wear when he stood on the dohyo which is the ring
This was well received by the Japanese people who love Trump. While walking out of the sumo arena, Japanese people were trying to get to him to shake his hand. He reached out and shook as many hands as he could. The Japanese people were ecstatic
A short thread on the background to @japantimes' new openly neo-imperialist position. In 2017, the paper was bought by the 'News2U' corporation - a shady PR company with no news background before it bought the Japan Times. asia.nikkei.com/Business/The-J… 1/4
News2U promised to keep JT's editorial independence, but Chairperson, Minako Suematsu, was recently appointed as a fellow of the Dentsu Institute news2u-group.com/en/company/off… 2/4
The Dentsu Institute is the meda think-tank of massive PR / media firm, #Dentsu, “It is not like any company in the world... You are the customer, but they are the master." ft.com/content/c0c3ee… Dentsu plays a key role in the return to a more right-wing Japan under #Abe 3/4
