The Internet-addicted, on 27th May 2016, were agitated. One of the Japanese broadcasting, TV Tokyo; known as “Never changing its programs,” broadcasted a special program of Obama's speech instead of anime(right below is TV Tokyo). Looking back on the history of TV Tokyo, it was ignorant of much of big news. To know how surprising the case it is, look at some of the news which TV Tokyo did not broadcast.
