In this journal entry, I wrote the following

===== From here =====

But why would they put the live press conference on the 7:00 (7:00 p.m.) NHK news?

About the cabinet reshuffle, I only need to know the results. A summary of the press conference is sufficient.

Having NHK commentators explain it to me for an overview is sufficient.

The Ebata family eats dinner in time for the 7:00 news, so these "boring" press conferences that last over an hour are "very annoying," to say the least.

But why would they put the live press conference on the 7:00 (7:00 p.m.) NHK news?

===== To here =====

Today, the Prime Minister's press conference started at 6:15 p.m.

In other words, they have stopped "bumping the press conference to the 7:00 (19:00) NHK news.

"I guess what I say has a lot of influence."

I was the one who thought for a moment.

I'm very much mistaken, though.

There may have been too many angry people to get angry by the conflict between the Prime Minister's press conference and the 7:00 (7:00 p.m.) NHK news.

Or, this avoidance may be a coincidence.

In any case, the 7:00 (7:00 p.m.) NHK news hour is a valuable 30-minute wrap-up of what happened that day for me.

The content of the press conference is important, but Gaza, Ukraine, the strong yen, prices, exchange rates, and other matters now are equally important to me.

Please do not take my time without my permission.

If the government bumps the prime minister's press conference live at that time, NHK should record the live broadcast and turn it over to another time.

If NHK continues the same "flattering" of the government (the prime minister), I will rehash this story and criticize NHK repeatedly.
