12/27 (Fri) 14:27 Regarding the exclusive interview with Downtown’s Matsumoto Hitoshi on the 25th, entertainment journalist Nakanishi Masao, who covered the interview, appeared on “Shunkan LIVE Toretate!” on the 27th. He said it was “unlikely” that Matsumoto would hold a press conference. Matsumoto’s affair with a woman was reported in the December issue of Shukan Bunshun last year, and he filed a lawsuit against the publisher Bungeishunju and others for defamation. He took a break from show business to focus on the trial. But eventually the lawsuit was dropped. In an interview, he expressed his intention to return in the spring of 2025. On the other hand, there are voices calling for a press conference to be held, but Matsumoto said, “It will probably just end up being a place where both the listeners and us end up getting frustrated,” and “We will communicate what needs to be communicated. It doesn’t work as a pure flavor, and ends up giving off a different flavor.” Nakanishi also denied holding the press conference. “It wasn’t written in the manuscript, and it wasn’t something Matsumoto said directly. He prefaced his statement by saying, “That’s what I really felt from every word you said.” “The reason why he did not hold a press conference is that distrust for the so-called reports and the media has grown over the past year. For example, even if a press conference is held, it will be broadcast on a variety show or information program, and the people on that program will of course make the choice to do so. The commentators in the studio also say various things. The things I truly wanted to convey continue to multiply infinitely. “I wonder if there was a sense of distrust towards that kind of thing,” he said, expressing his personal opinion.
>>1 Until now, you’ve been the one acting all high and mighty and saying that the press conference should be held. If so, don’t show up in public again. What a pathetic guy.
>Even if a press conference is held, it will be broadcast on a talk show or information program, and of course the people on that program will make the choice to do so. >The commentators in the studio start saying all sorts of things again. You guys have been doing this a lot already lol.
That’s because if they hold a press conference, they’ll be made to realize that what they thought was right in their own mind isn’t the way the world is. They’ll just end up throwing a tantrum and saying that things aren’t supposed to be like this.
>>16 It’s not so much about the cuts, but about the Q&A sessions with reporters that he hates. Even if they prepare a script and have him follow it, he gets extremely nervous, so he ends up flustered and it’s hard for the audience to see that, which is hard for the proud Matsu-chan to accept.
I wonder if someone who can write something like this after being called to the head office while wearing blonde hair and jeans and having their legs crossed during an interview is enjoying life? I don’t think they’re close to being a journalist.
>>19 This entertainment reporter, Nakanishi, has been defending Matsumoto ever since the scandal broke. The person chosen as the interviewer this time is also a total Matsumoto supporter, so this is a stupidly rigged interview article.
It’s so convenient that the media has said whatever they want to others, but now they say they’re excused when it comes to themselves… Takeshi’s press conference was electrifyingly cool I didn’t like Shinsuke, but in the end he was a man You’re the only one who isn’t honest…
You’re just running away from something you don’t like lol. It’s obvious there’s a risk, you idiot lol. But people appreciate that you held a press conference instead of running away from it.
