Reporter Steve Herman doesn't quite have an NPR-style voice but that's a plus. He's old school voice of authority and the report is solid news. Whether an American station would want to air a piece about hay fever in Japan is another question. I would think that stations are more likely to pair this with it's own pollen count reports. Perhaps Pacific Rim stations might be interested in giving this piece a lesson. I hope Herman files more pieces from Japan though and keeps them coming.
