Also, wikipedia is a free for all site, MOST articles on Wiki are based on thrid party info, don't rely on it too much

I was being sarcastic about wikipedia, although I am a fanboy of it..
So.. that one website the OP posted. I guess it's like real news, but intentionally bad journalism. Interesting. And.. how exactly is an ambassador a fictional character? Think of how easy it would be to hire an impostor.. you could get anywhere. Wait.. THAT'S how I'll get to japan!
