Criticisms of TV Asahi’s “Verification Program” flooded in… The TV industry is already planning to “pay a visit to the new president”.

On November 12, TV Asahi aired a one-hour verification program on the sexual assault case at the former Johnny’s office (SMILE-UP.).
The program introduced five key findings of the investigation by the “Special Recurrence Prevention Team of Outside Experts” established by the former Johnny’s Office. One of them was determined to be the silence of the mass media.
The internal hearings at the bureau surveyed a total of 103 bureau employees and alumni who were on the frontlines of news reporting and production. Seven of them answered that there had been “discovery,” and Mr. Nishishin, the executive director of the station’s Contents and Programming Bureau, who appeared on the VTR, stated that “the former Johnny’s Office has been silent in recent years, and that the media has been silent.

He went on to reveal that, “The TV stations, led by NHK, were all involved in the discovery process.
While NHK and other TV stations aired verification programs, this station was the latest to do so. While the station’s acknowledgement of the discovery is commendable, its lack of novelty and lack of specificity has been criticized by some.
For example, regarding the accusation by former ninja Yasunobu Shiga that he was sexually abused by the late Janie Kitagawa in the bathroom of TV Asahi’s former building, the station cited the fact that the old building had already been destroyed and that Janie had passed away, as in the past.
“It is difficult to confirm the facts.
The company’s stance remained unchanged, citing the fact that the old building had already been destroyed and that Mr. Janney had passed away. No mention was made of the “Music Station. According to a source within the station
According to a source within the station, “For TV people, the casting of a program is top secret. It is impossible to publicly acknowledge the discovery by naming the program.
The “Johnny’s” music station, which performs 180 shows a year, was not even mentioned.
