Rurei Miura’s Talent is Her Ticket to Being TV Sensation

Rurei Miura, an international political scientist, was reportedly charged with fraud after a raid by the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office on the company headed by her husband, Kiyoshi. Although she has been absent from regular programs, she appeared on the February 15 broadcast of TOKYO FM’s “TOKYO SPEAKEASY” radio program.

She said, “The reason I don’t feel sorry for myself is because I have a family.

He also emphasized the unity of his family. However, the public’s criticism of Mr. Miura has only grown stronger as his past comments and troubles have been dredged up.

During an appearance on the February 2006 episode of “Wide Nah Show” (Fuji TV), Mr. Miura, who was also a lecturer at the University of Tokyo at the time, said that North Korean undercover terrorists known as “sleeper cells” had infiltrated Tokyo, Osaka, and other major cities.

As one of the grounds for his claim, he cited an article about North Korea that appeared in the British tabloid “Daily Mail,” which caused controversy.

Incidentally, the Daily Mail is listed in Wikipedia, an online encyclopedia, as follows

The Daily Mail is banned from being cited in the online encyclopedia Wikipedia on the grounds that it is “sensationalistic, lacking in factual verification, and completely fictitious.

In addition, in September of last year, after the attack on former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, he appeared on the TV Asahi program “Asa Tara Ikusei Television! (TV Asahi) in September of last year, after the attack on former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, about the family of Tetsuya Yamagami, a suspect whose family had collapsed due to high donations to the Unification Church.

There are many reasons for creating an abusive family like Yamakami’s. Fathers skim money from pachinko and horse racing, beatings for domestic violence, and drowning in alcohol, all of which are legal. There are many cases where legal activities can destroy a family.”

He remarked. An interesting opinion, but according to writer Osamu Tetsuna

It is clear that he is defending the Unification Church from the opposite direction.

Why did TV continue to use Mr. Miura in the first place?

According to a producer who has been involved in the production of information programs at a key station

She is a graduate of the University of Tokyo, has an impressive resume, and is beautiful. She was the perfect character for TV because she would argue from the top down. She had a lot of old men fans in the TV industry.

As is the case with “Asa Sei,” many housewives and retired old men watch the morning information programs. That’s why the show was popular with that demographic.

Incidentally, Soichiro Tahara, the host of the show, is also a fan of hers. With a strong push from her “old man” fans, she was able to establish herself in the TV industry.

I don’t know how it was at first, but I don’t think there are any programs that use her for her knowledge as an international political scientist. I don’t know how it was at first, but I don’t think any TV program has ever used her for her knowledge of international politics. Academic commentators, when asked for their opinions on matters outside their field of expertise, often use euphemisms, soft expressions, or only offer good arguments. This is probably because they lack self-confidence or are afraid of being accused of saying the wrong thing.

In this situation, she was popular for confidently and decisively expressing her opinions from a different angle than others. She seemed to have calculated well what was expected of her and where she stood. She was no longer a scholar, but a celebrity, as she showed off her celebrity status in her blog,” said the same producer.

However, there were some things that were not true or not backed up, which led to the flames, but the TV station did not care that much.

It was just an opinion, so it was fine if people took it as a way of thinking,” he said. In fact, there were no complaints to the station to the extent that the Internet made a fuss about it. That is the good thing about being a scholar.

This would not be the case with a TV personality. We would be inundated with complaints. She was also well aware of the fact that she never attacked anyone personally or spoke ill of the government, so she was able to manage the crisis as a TV personality.

It is clear that the TV station valued Mr. Miura because he had the same level of attention as a popular TV personality with a cultural figure quota fee. However, if he had been a scholar, he would not have had to suffer this kind of depression.
