This is the public view of Sony now, it seems. A company that has many unreliable, overpriced products ("The hardware features are good, but they sometimes break."; "The prices seem high."), and has an image of having fallen far from grace ("Previously, it (Sony) was great, but now the sun is setting somewhat."; "An incompetent electronics maker."). I imagine it goes beyond Japan, as well.
It's due to a variety of factors, surely. Perhaps the quality of some of their products or their sheer quantity have contributed to this. Their... rather poor marketing is possibly a factor, as well ("None of its new products grab me. There's no excitement.") It's scratching the surface of the issues the company is going through at this time. Whether or not Kaz will be a true "Mr. Fix-It" remains to be seen.
That whole news show thing is more than a little harsh, though. "Awkward", indeed.
