[Machine Translation] A powerful politician from the ruling party and a top NHK executive had contact with each other just before the program was broadcast, and the program dealing with the comfort women issue was severely altered. The producer in charge of the program broke his silence and revealed the entire process of the incident in 2001, which was disputed in court and drew the attention of many people. This book, which clearly describes the conflicts at the broadcasting site and the attitude of NHK executives in cozy relationship with the ruling party, is the best book to learn about the NHK program alteration case.
