Am in two minds as to whether the media in #Japan is just being disingenuous or really haven't done their homework before reporting on matters home and abroad.

2nd definition of "disingenuous" by Wordnik: "Pretending to be unaware or unsophisticated; faux-naïf"
Probably more charitable than the 1st: "...insincere or calculating"

Pretending to be a frog in a well knowing nothing about the great sea (井の中の蛙大海を知らず) isn't any better than the homework-eating dog excuse.
