I am a former member of the Diet and plan to run as an opposition candidate in the upcoming election.
Although I am on the opposition side, as someone who discusses national politics, I cannot overlook the reports about Prime Minister,Mr. Ishiba.
I ask you all to spare just a few minutes to hear my opinion.
Japan is a country with unparalleled cleanliness and compassion in the world.
However, the current state of some media outlets that have degenerated, with weekly magazines and web articles chasing “scoops” that are nothing more than gossip, is appalling.
The recent article “We asked Yoshiko Ishiba, the new Prime Minister’s wife! ‘Their meeting at Keio University,’ ‘The legend of his stinginess,’ ‘His relationship with female secretaries'” is a prime example of this.
These articles only draw the public into a “schadenfreude” mentality and stand out for their vulgarity in insulting the nation’s leaders.
The Trap of the “Beautiful Secretary”
The expression “beautiful secretary” reveals both misogyny and intellectual laziness.
