○TV GA GA! Someone still loves you!

I heard people don’t watch TV as much as we used to, but we should definitely have unforgettable TV programs we were engrossed in, do you?

1 How long do you watch TV?

2 What was your most memorable moment on TV?
For me, it’s 1989 Tiananmen Square protests. I rushed to a Chinese friend of mine and cried with her watching people squashed.

3 What was your all time favorite program?
For me, Idaten, Ogon No Hibi, Saturday Night Live, Best Hit USA, Tiger Mask…

4 Do you have any recommendations right now?
I recommend “Ore no Ie no Hanashi” and “Frankenstein no Yuwaku”.

○To Believe, Not to Believe,That Is The Question

In this chaotic world, we are all being “Hamlet”. Having plenty of news come and go like perpetual waves, hard to find which one to ride on.

Our democracy is in danger. Division, violence, and the gap. Ignorance is at the bottom of racism, hatred and intolerance, they say, However, incorrect- so called “fake news” is making things more complicated now.

Whatever your principal is, the bottomline is what you hear.

Then, how can we keep ourselves straight in this chaotic world?

1 Why do you think people believe fake news, no matter how ridiculous they are?

2 Do we need regulations or laws against fake news?

３ For the fabricators, SNS is the biggest weapon now,. GAFA and other IT giants have their own censorship against them. Do you think this is right?

4 Do you have any good ideas for protecting ourselves from those vicious fake news?
