Global Warming, Global Financial/Economy Crisis, Global Terrorism...(?)! "Change" is announced by Obama not by the editors or journalists, so they will continue to print and repeat what they have been doing for years.

The economic depression will dominate the news, both in Japan and abroad. Because of Israel's invasion of the Gaza Strip and and the killing of hundreds of innocent people, terroism will increase worldwide. Obama will be able to 'change' very little. Oh, Hanshin Tigers will become 2009 champions.

Japan: Whether or not some talentless talent gets married, divorced, has an affair or says something offensive. Corrupt politicians and businessmen. Bizarre family murder. The world: War, economy, global warming.

I think the Child Abduction issue with Japanese Nationals will become more apparent to many in Japan and in the world 2. The filthy rich will get richer 3. Citizens of the world will come to their senses and realize that Democracy is just a word and that it doesn`t really exist in the world. 4. The UN will do more of nothing. And last 5. Anything to do with Obama.

I think it will be news about companies,jobs,economy and what changes that will have to do to weather economic woes caused by balloon economic scams of corporations in cities.

How they rebuild their confidence in economy and money circulations. The buck circulations rebuilding stories and the new business corporation heroes,will dominate.

More corporation new games on buck circulations rebuilding.
