L’actualité japonaise en anglais, en 60 mots

L’actualité japonaise en anglais est plus maigre qu’il n’y paraît.

La presse japonaise anglophone ne représente qu’une fraction de la presse nationale, et ce qui est traduit penche vers ce qu’on suppose intéresser un public international. Ne lire que cela, c’est recevoir une version du Japon assemblée pour les étrangers.

shortnews.be lit The Japan Times et The Mainichi en anglais et NHK en japonais, puis résume en 60 mots. La ligne NHK compte : elle fait remonter dans le fil des sujets nationaux, qu’une rédaction anglophone ait jugé ou non qu’ils valaient une traduction ce jour-là.

Le Japon a son propre onglet, à côté de la Belgique. Même format, même longueur, même absence de putaclic — à un glissement de doigt des nouvelles belges que vous devez suivre aussi.
