<h2> It&#8217;s very risky to let her talk.</h2>
 On April 23, during the live morning broadcast of the &#8220;Shinichi Hatori Morning Show&#8221; (TV Asahi), there was a scene where the performers argued with each other and became tense.
 The program featured a special feature on generational differences in working styles between the Showa and Reiwa eras, with Chiba University of Commerce Professor Yohei Tsunemi, an expert on the sociology of labor, appearing as an expert. Young people.
 Is our company doing proper business?
 the topic took an unexpected turn. Professor Tsunemi told the program&#8217;s assistant, 24-year-old announcer Akari Matsuoka, &#8220;This program is decent, but it&#8217;s not a daily routine,
 This program is decent, but from the point of view of the public, I don&#8217;t think we need to report this much about the murder in Kyoto every day. What do you think?
 Matsuoka looked puzzled, but then said, &#8220;I don&#8217;t know what to think.

 As Matsuoka Anna laughed bitterly with a troubled expression on her face and unable to answer anything, commentator and former TV Asahi employee Toru Tamagawa (62)
 That&#8217;s very risky to let her talk now, you know. I feel sorry for her!
 You shouldn&#8217;t ask her that!
 Professor Tsunemi said to him in a stern tone of voice.
 Professor Tsunemi responded, &#8220;No, it&#8217;s not relevant to ask her that.
 No, it&#8217;s relevant to ask her that!
 Professor Tsunemi countered. After his appearance, Professor Tsunemi said in X
 I hadn&#8217;t called him in two years, and he was being polite, but when Mr. Tamagawa made his comment, I said, &#8220;Wait a minute,&#8221; and a switch was flipped.
 He posted, &#8220;I&#8217;m sorry.

 It was a tense battle that could only take place on live TV, but the news director of another station told this website, &#8220;If this exchange had been on our show, we would not have been able to get the attention we needed,
 &#8220;I would be horrified if this exchange had taken place on our program,&#8221; he said.
 I would be horrified if it had been on our program,&#8221; he said.

<h2>Sending eyes and asking for help.</h2>
 The reason for this,
 I think Professor Tsunemi asked Matsuoka, who was in the studio, the question because he was from the younger generation. But it is not legal for a station announcer to talk about her personal opinions on the news, especially when the question could lead to criticism of the company. At the moment she was asked the question, she looked at the producer in the studio and seemed to be asking for help.
 Professor Tsunemi also revealed that the company was in the process of developing a new product. Professor Tsunemi also said that the Kyoto Elementary School 6 case was a &#8220;murder case,&#8221; even though it was a body dumping case as of April 23.

 This is a word we must never say, and we are always very careful about it,&#8221; he said. If we had planned to talk about this case, we would have given a lecture about it at the meeting. Since the theme was &#8220;working styles&#8221; among generations, the staff probably did not expect Professor Tsunemi to bring up this topic. Not only did this offend the audience, but it was also very annoying to the news media. To be honest, I think the staff never wanted to invite him back on the program again.
 The director also said that he felt uncomfortable in pointing out the Kyoto Elementary School Six Incident.
 Akira Ikegami also complained about the lengthy coverage of the Kyoto incident, and this led to an increase in the number of people who agreed with him. However, on the other hand, reporting on this case has boosted viewer ratings tremendously. There are still many mysteries left to be solved, and the public is very interested in the case even after the arrest. The mission of a news organization is to report what people want to know. As a wide-ranging TV show that is in fierce competition for ratings, it is only natural that it should report the hottest stories in depth. If the show loses the competition side by side, there is a possibility that it will be terminated.
