Why Old Media Favors Shinjiro Koizumi: The Appeal of a Handsome Politician

Question from a reader:
What is the reason that the old media supports Shinjiro Koizumi?

The Relationship Between Shinjiro Koizumi and Old Media

Recently, it seems like Shinjiro Koizumi has been featured quite a bit in the news. When I see his face, he gives off a vibe of being a “handsome politician,” which makes it somewhat understandable why the old
media supports him. I’ve had conversations with friends where we discuss, “What do you think of Shinjiro?” and I can’t help but feel that looks do matter.

Ratings and Appeal to Older Women

According to my friends, “He has a good appeal to older women, which boosts his ratings.” When watching television, I can sense a certain friendliness in his speaking style and expressions. His slight quirkiness might actually be a plus. I’ve witnessed moments that seem like they could be good material for comedy. However, it’s questionable whether he is truly being “strongly recommended.” In the world of politics, there’s always the perspective of “relatively better.” With other politicians focused on downgrading Japan’s national bonds, it might be somewhat inevitable that he is seen as a comparatively better figure.

My Thoughts

Although I’m not well-versed in politics, I find it interesting to hear various opinions. It’s fun to reflect on society through comedy, and I believe it’s important to laugh off the things that seem “off” in our everyday lives. When discussing these topics with friends, time often flies by, and before I know it, I’ve eaten too many snacks! What do you think about Shinjiro Koizumi? If you have any interesting stories about other politicians or news, please share them in the comments! Let’s enjoy a fun discussion together.
