Is Prime Minister Takaichi giving the media the cold shoulder? While the number of press interactions has fallen, she is actively posting on social media: “As long as the public’s ‘right to know’ is protected, either way is fine. The media themselves don’t talk to the public either.” (ABEMA TIMES)

No matter what she says, the media will tear her apart, so social media is fine.
The public gets that too.
10: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:30:58.31 ID:ixgvAP3g0
We don’t need old media anymore.
14: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:32:02.30 ID:siDxJ8nM0
Honestly, it’s better when information reaches the public directly without extra manipulation, lol.

On social media, whoever says it first wins.
You can just pretend not to see opinions that hurt to hear.

The mass media tried to push that fabricated video and failed, so social media must be nothing but a nuisance to them.
28: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:35:52.10 ID:Zw4f5Gec0
We’ll drag down her approval rating!
30: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:36:03.10 ID:+OTXahwu0
Seriously, thank Elon and social media.
34: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:36:43.58 ID:E5y/OBuK0
“The media themselves don’t talk to the public either.”

That is absolutely true.

37: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:37:21.72 ID:+OTXahwu0
Wait, don’t we not need press clubs anymore?
41: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:37:42.73 ID:wIj7FPJm0
It’s hilarious when they criticize social media for being one-way communication.
42: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:37:57.28 ID:FMqCt6yw0
Old media has been taken over by the left, lol.
43: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:38:05.18 ID:9lbkXzJ80
Wasn’t that smear video also fabricated by Kyodo News?
45: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:38:11.63 ID:s+ra6+u70
I bet she actually loves being on TV.
Maybe someone is stopping her.
47: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:38:47.39 ID:+OTXahwu0
The lefties are mad because they can’t control information anymore.
50: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:38:59.83 ID:vRqzEQVD0
We don’t really need it now. Nobody watches TV or reads newspapers anyway.
Everyone looks at their smartphone, so posting there is normal.
55: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:39:40.67 ID:E85rqyvi0
Exactly.
Old media is just too awful.
56: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:39:43.28 ID:XShKOpXF0
Yeah, that’s fair.
57: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:39:45.21 ID:KJa5AH9z0
The media can just write lazy desk articles.
They’re good at making stuff up, right? lol
63: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:40:32.98 ID:xMmyqc5/0
Ever since the Taiwan remarks, the negative campaigning has been intense.
Of course she’d distrust the media.
69: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:41:02.07 ID:gsQP+o7S0
What the media does isn’t dialogue, it’s forcing their opinions on people.
If their attitude is that fabrication is fine, of course people abandon them.
70: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:41:03.57 ID:E85rqyvi0
Newspapers → nobody reads them
TV → nobody watches it

Social media → over 80% use it

73: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:41:15.59 ID:oxNU3r270
So basically, she just wants to say whatever she likes one-way?
83: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:43:14.13 ID:gsQP+o7S0
>>73
The media is being abandoned because they report whatever they like one-way.
80: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:42:51.16 ID:lYB2Hv/k0
The media filter feels way too fake, so I don’t even want to look.
85: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:43:18.93 ID:dVNTdfqM0
More people now take official statements as the correct version.
Of course that makes things easier for them.
90: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:44:08.25 ID:i3ZdaoNA0
Newspapers aren’t selling.
They’ll collapse eventually.
102: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:45:52.78 ID:/bMjUgCu0
Social media is just posting one-way, right? It’s not like they answer questions.
At that point, the right to know is being restricted.
136: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:49:31.88 ID:YjKOfdeD0
Hearing it directly from the person is the fastest and most reliable way, so why do we need the media playing telephone in between?
143: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:49:58.67 ID:0lLkyLoB0
The dumb lefties go crazy and start yelling at the wall, so this is absolutely the right move.
166: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:52:01.15 ID:m0detV3/0
Why would she take questions from people saying, “We’ll drag down your approval rating!”
176: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:53:02.63 ID:HG6RERa70
For old media, activist groups matter more than the public.
180: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:53:28.01 ID:RVExpdsd0
“We don’t need the mass media” is basically the public consensus now.
184: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:53:58.65 ID:akJOzDLq0
TV and newspapers are one-way too.
And they call themselves fair reporting.
193: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:54:34.55 ID:226Ty1t90
If Takaichi lies, we wouldn’t know.
That’s why we need the media to challenge her.
200: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:55:23.48 ID:EYkpiULA0
>>193
That media is full of liars, so nobody trusts them.
214: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 12:56:30.90 ID:Hp491ZvG0
They only clip the convenient parts and drag people down. We don’t need the media anymore.
278: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 13:01:32.74 ID:9wZEMUZq0
What are Chudo and the media going to do about that trashy tabloid-style story they ran?
341: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 13:06:22.19 ID:U5VpKx840
This topic feels like the death rattle of the mass media.
Japan is probably going to become more like America.
508: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 13:21:15.65 ID:a0SnxVzi0
“The right to know (fabricated edition).”
612: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 13:32:34.67 ID:3OfLvICp0
The media clips things selectively, so it’s better for the person to speak directly.

It also avoids unnecessary misunderstandings.

834: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 13:52:36.03 ID:BihIehoh0
When I see press conferences like the Hyogo governor’s, I wonder if they have any meaning for ordinary residents.
729: Unknown Japuzz Watcher 2026/06/13(土) 13:44:23.58 ID:fEwM/oxd0
If the public is unhappy about this, it’ll show up in the approval ratings.
