Why can't Kojima insult journalism in this country?

Thanks to Jeff Bridges (no relation, he assures me) for sending a link to an excerpt from Hideo Kojima's comments on the state of video game journalism. "It is shit," the Metal Gear creator succinctly explains in this months Edge and VideoGiochi magazines. "I am certain that most game reporters in Japan are not really journalists, they are useless idiots."



As for the rest of the world, the excerpt is cryptic. "It's easy for us to compare the quality of reporters from Japan and other parts of the world when we visit E3 or ECTS, and this fact makes me hard." Does this mean other parts of the world are better? Worse? Exciting?



Anyone want to defend the industry against Kojima's obviously baseless accusations?
