News sources for Japan

** I COULDN'T DECIDE WHICH FORUM TO PUT THIS UNDER, SO IF IT IS MORE APPROPRIATE FOR THE JAPAN FORUM, I WOULD APPRECIATE IT BEING MOVED RATHER THAN DELETED. THANK YOU **

Sorry if this is a repeat thread, I searched but returned nothing [ that's the same ] - - Perhaps I didn't search hard enough. If this is the case, I apologize.

This thread will be dedicated to getting THE BEST sources for news on Japan available to everyone.

[ NHK ]
[ CNN ]
[ NY TIMES ]
[ JAPAN TIMES ]
[ HUFFINGTON POST ]

These are the best I can find. Please post any more that you have that I missed.

But PLEASE limit them to reliable sources. Not sites such as blogs, other discussion sites, etc.

Thanks.

The best source would be being there, the news lies to you, and lies have no jurisdiction . That being said, the watered down version of news is all we have, so S&F good idea.

I agree that we are being lied to constantly; however, having multiple sources to use, it may be easier to hone in on any truths.

YokosoNews gives first hand info from Tokyo - also translated news briefs and updates. Katz the broadcaster has a lot of great insight into the catastrophe.

Enjoy

I have been using all the sources you mention, though I question CNN as a source.

Here is another you have not mentioned:

Kyodo News
