Japan is home to some of the worst television on the planet. This is a 'live' report by a field reporter standing on the bank of a river (nothing is happening, no one is around, but it is 'live'). He is holding up a cardboard map - no high-tech graphics here, and you can see his hand supporting the card. We have the time in the top left corner, the 'LIVE' in the top right corner, some other text information at the bottom right. Meanwhile, we can see a picture in picture of the host in the studio watching the report. Why? Why, indeed. Incredible visual noise.
