Biography

He attended Keio University and majored in economics and, upon graduating, worked for Kure Mainichi Shinbun (Newspaper) in 1973. In July 1981, he was promoted to senior researcher at Mainichi Shimbun (Newspaper) headquarters. In April 1993, he became a professor at University of Shizuoka and taught journalism, media and international communications. He retired in 2009 and is currently a freelance journalist and enjoys sea canoeing and fishing.
