NHK's studio design is interesting - especially with the LCD people. I'm not sure I like this design. the clear desks have to go. Was this setup to be a gaming setup? Looking at the red color scheme. 

My broadcast news studio would have:

• Real wood desks with hanging monitors (34" Ultra-wide IPS panels x 16)
• 16 ultra-high resolution monitors would be behind the presenters, in perfect 4x4 (2k res)
• 4K cameras with STL direct to internet 
• Virtual switching and camera controls
• Highest quality broadcast microphones (wireless only)
• Generic sets for quick swaps (eg. Politics Hour, Democratic Debates, etc would share 1 set)
• No background noise: Unlike CNN or Fox, there will be NO trespassing, video of employees working, or workers behind the set in any manner
• Direct to Youtube stream for special broadcasts
• 3 virtual offices worldwide: Calgary, New York, and Washington DC
• Strictest security on entry and set access
• Holographic presenters for remote office visits
• Setup for SNN's Documentary Division, yet to be announced
• Virtual correspondents
• Artificial Intelligence for Close Captioning

Now all this costs money, time, and planning.
