Truth-skirting, alarmist, and sensationalist journalism that treats
bizarre exceptions as common phenomena pointing to "disturbing trends"
is most definitely a a global thing. Foreigners swallowing such yellow
journalism hook, line, and sinker out of some weird desire to believe
the worst possible things about a country, on the other hand, seems to
be restricted to Japan.
