Question from Readers:
Why does the old media support Shinjiro Koizumi?
The Relationship Between Old Media and Shinjiro Koizumi
Recently, I’ve been pondering why old media supports Shinjiro Koizumi. First and foremost, it’s clear that his looks appeal to women, particularly middle-aged women. For media outlets looking to boost ratings, visual appeal is crucial. In fact, when you see him on
television, he exudes a strangely calming presence. His soft smile and occasional serious expression might provide a sense of reassurance. During my part-time job at a judicial scrivener’s office, Koizumi’s name often comes up in political discussions. Especially when other politicians are focused on downgrading bond ratings, Koizumi’s presence stands out relatively. I chuckled when a senior colleague remarked, “Shinjiro is better.” Indeed, when the alternatives are quite poor, even slight positives can become more noticeable.
The Appeal of Shinjiro Koizumi
I believe Koizumi’s charm lies in his words and actions. For example, his passion when discussing environmental issues and his messages to the youth resonate on some level. Even while working as a politician, his “humanity” comes through. However, personally, I don’t feel that he is being overwhelmingly promoted. While the media certainly covers him, I question whether this attention is based on his actual abilities or policies. The world of politics is complex, and it makes one reflect on what truly deserves support. Recalling a light conversation at work, one senior colleague mentioned, “Looks really matter for young politicians these days.” It’s true that to gain support from younger generations, appearance and character are important. However, that alone is not enough. Ultimately, it’s about how seriously he considers the future of the country.
In Conclusion
What do you all think? If Shinjiro Koizumi’s support stems from old media, to what extent do his charm and policies influence this? I would love to hear your opinions and experiences in the comments. I also plan to keep an eye on his future actions.
