Former banker running NHK which is known for billions of profit, but pays its workers peanuts, great!

Just this week, NHK put letters in each of our mailboxes, telling us to fill in the form for payment by the end of this month. Threw mine in the bin. I don't have a TV. I wish they'd stop assuming everyone has a TV. And one piece of advice to NHK. If you visit someone, as soon as the door opens, do not start writing a bill. Ask the person whether he or she has a TV. A few years down the line, I can imagine NHK demanding payment from everyone who has an internet connection.

I'd be a bit more inclined to watch NHK if they weren't such an LDP propaganda channel.
