The following is from the late Mr. Nishibe Susumu’s book “The Mass Media Will Kill the Nation.”
All Japanese citizens who can read the printed word must now head to their nearest bookstore to subscribe.
The rest of the world will know from my translation that the same is true of the mass media in your country.
Why was the mass media’s extraordinary spree repeated many times
Out of rule spree by the press, it would be inevitable for the people to follow it if it happened for the first time.
However, if I trace the modern history of Japan a little, the spree of the mass media and the spree that everyone is at a loss for what was the trouble for in no time have been raised several times.
For example, in the case of Manchuria, every newspaper hurrah to the advance of the Japanese army was sent.
I am not an “anti-war” ist or “anti-military” ist, so I generally do not want to call war evil, but there is no doubt that the mass media incited war anyway.
Or when Saito Takao made an army purge speech in isolation and without support, the media made him leave the parliament and make a noise with the soldiers.
Just looking at the pre-war history a little like this does not seem to suggest that the tyranny and stratagem of some soldiers caused the war.
There are numerous cases in which mass communication plays a vital role as an incite group of war, and the liberals who oppose it are buried in mass lynching one after another.
The media is almost entirely silent about that.
It is not an exception after the war.
Taking myself as an example, I went to court also caught by the police as the youngest leader among the left-wing extremists against the 1960 Japan-US Security Treaty revision at the age of twenty. It was.
After that, by thinking and making my judgment, I conclude that the revision of the Japan-US Security Treaty is justifiable from the standpoint of Japan and that neither the theory of the left nor the action is justified. 
I also stated that in a sentence.
By the way, the mass media also developed a criticism campaign against security for 60 years.
However, even after the historical assessment that the 1960 Security Treaty was beneficial to the Japanese nation and its people took root in Japanese society, the media has no place to reflect on their own words and actions. 
It is too much to count on over-reporting or distorted media reporting after the war.
There are also many books criticizing that.
For example, it seems that the so-called Nanjing massacre case, in which the Japanese army slaughtered 300,000 Chinese, is a forgery; it is possible to deny any longer than that at least is strong.
However, some prominent newspapers have been campaigning to criticize the ‘massacre,’ but they are not clear that it was their over-reporting.
They will not even make it a subject of debate.
In recent examples, so-called textbook problems are also real. 
For example, the media reported that the Japanese textbook ‘Invasion’ was rewritten as ‘advancement.’
That triggered China’s government to criticize Japan, and the Japanese minister apologized.
Shortly after that, it turned out that there was no fact that “invasion” was rewritten as “advancement” when we scrutinized it.
Nevertheless, the mass media do not admit their misinformation except for some newspapers.
In addition, the media made a big fuss, but when the fuss was over, it turned out to be nothing more than a hoax, and what’s more, it turned out to be a fuss that even included the fabrication of information.
