<h2><span class="strongInContent"> The &#8220;circumstances&#8221; of Nagano&#8217;s contract with 11 commercial companies.</span></h2>
<p> The question that is commonplace to everyone was posted on social networking sites.</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> Mei Nagano and Kei Tanaka&#8217;s affair: Why aren&#8217;t the wide shows reporting it?　Pressure?</span></p>
<p> The most shocking affair report of the year caused quite a stir on the Internet. The April 24 issue of the weekly magazine Bunshun reported on the alleged affair between Mei Nagano (25), one of the most popular actors of all time, and Kei Tanaka (40), a popular actor.</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> The article included photos of Ms. Nagano and Mr. Tanaka holding hands and other items that appeared to come from someone extremely close to the inside. She brought Kim and Tanaka home for two nights in a row, which is a big image damage for Ms. Nagano, who has been scandal-free up to now.</span></p>
<p> Her office immediately denied the allegations of infidelity. The office immediately denied the allegations of infidelity, commenting that although she invited Tanaka and Kim to her home, her mother and friends were also present when Tanaka and Kim were there.</p>
<p> The TV station announced that &#8220;Caster,&#8221; in which Nagano is currently starring, will continue to air without any changes, and there has been no announcement about the cancellation of the release of the movie &#8220;Kakukakajika,&#8221; which is scheduled to be released on May 16. Nagano has also signed contracts with 11 companies for commercials, but so far there has been no noticeable movement such as deletion or cancellation of commercials.</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p> Why is it that such a shocking allegation of adultery has caused &#8220;no damage&#8221; only this time?</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> The next day, the sports newspaper reported it extensively, but most TV programs did not cover it, although there were a few programs that dealt with the two parties&#8217; denial comments. The biggest reason is that Ms. Nagano&#8217;s office has a lot of power in the industry. It is not that they directly asked us not to do it, but if we had reported it extensively, we would have been forever regarded as an &#8220;enemy&#8221; of their office. I guess it means that there was a &#8220;discovery&#8221;.</span></p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> Naturally, if the commercial drama were to be terminated, the penalty would be astronomical. Ms. Nagano herself, who was a big seller, would be &#8220;crushed,&#8221; and her office would suffer enormous damage. Kei Tanaka&#8217;s agency is also an up-and-coming agency, with Shun Oguri as president and Go Ayano as a member. The stations probably thought it was not worth it to report the allegations of infidelity, which they denied, until they had a fight with such a major agency.</span></p>
<p> As for Nagano, he has commercials for 11 companies, a drama currently airing, and a movie scheduled for release. Naturally, the fact that many TV stations are involved in each of these cases is also a major factor.</p>
<div data-friday-nextpage-lead=" The CM sponsors are also &quot;taking a wait-and-see&quot; attitude. ......"></div>
<h2><span class="strongInContent">Background of the leak of the two-shot photo</span></h2>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> The TV station is not willing to make a big deal out of it for their own sake. There is an atmosphere of &#8220;we don&#8217;t want to make it as important as possible&#8221; within the TV stations, for their own sake. On the other hand, if a second or third arrow is fired from a weekly magazine or other publication and it is discovered that they have been lying, it is certain to cause even more of a firestorm than a mere allegation of infidelity. If that happens, TV will have no choice but to report it.</span></p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p> The fact that the two shots taken by Nagano and Tanaka have been leaked to the public means that it is possible that one of the two sent that photo to someone, or that someone saw their phone and leaked it.</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> According to the Bunshun report, the two also had a date at a leisure land before Christmas last December, so there is no denying the laxity of the side story. The commercial companies are currently taking a wait-and-see approach, but if one of their sponsors decides to discontinue their commercials, the dominoes could topple at once, with one sponsor saying, &#8220;My company and my company too. If some of the sponsors decide to discontinue their commercials, it could be a domino effect, with one sponsor saying, &#8220;My company, my company, and my company too.</span></p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p> In the case of the Fuji Television issue, a single company&#8217;s decision to suspend commercials led to an avalanche of complaints. If the same thing happens with the adultery issue, it will be impossible for the news shows to ignore it.</p>
