>As we go to press, news reaches us that Mainichi’s online WaiWai column has been pulled, apparently
>following an attack by those who considered the content “anti-Japanese.” No.1 readers may remember
>that political pressure shut down the Japan Institute of International Affairs in 2006 and cancelled
>screenings of “Yasukuni.” Japan Focus was also recently hacked offline, presumably by similarly
>minded people. Now, more than ever the FCCJ needs a publication that isn’t afraid to upset all sides.
