Questions for Adam Fulford - LIVE tomorrow
Added 2020-05-17 17:59:38 +0000 UTCTomorrow at 11:15am JST I’ll have my friend Adam on a GO live stream and I wanted to ask if you had any questions for him. He’s lived in Japan for over 30 years, a producer at NHK World and business owners for decades here in Tokyo. We’ve co-reported on Tokyo Eye for over a decade. (He’s to the right in the photo.) very excited for this stream! -John

That’s a hard one for him since he’s not a decision maker. NHK is a massive organization not like any other channel. It’s the biggest channel in the world so I think I’ll have to focus smaller :)

2020-05-17 22:51:16 +0000 UTCWhat aspects of the media industry have you seen change the most over 30 years? For example, I started as a radio and print journalist in the 1990's and had to diversify into a multimedia journalist to embrace online platforms. What additional modifications have you witnessed or experienced?

2020-05-17 20:18:24 +0000 UTCQuestion: Hi Adam! You've mentioned in a few places the importance of gathering stories from the elderly. In fact, story gathering sounded like the foundation for the regional revitalization project you've worked on. Were there any notable stories from that project that stuck with you?

2020-05-17 20:00:34 +0000 UTCQuestion: What was the average response to your Japanese from native Japanese people? Were you well received and communicated with or were you slightly the outcast? If the outcast, how did you work through it to get to the place where you are today? As in welcomed without hesitation and your Japanese accepted. Thanks - Elisha M
