Regarding the program that was closely interviewed by the production team of the officially recorded movie of the Tokyo Olympics that was broadcast on BS1 Special last December, NHK produced Osaka because there was not enough supportive coverage and checking, and there was an error in a part of the subtitles. We have decided to disciplinary action such as one month suspension of the staff of the base broadcasting station.

In the BS1 special "Kawa * Naomi stared at the Tokyo Olympics" broadcasted in December last year, "a man who is participating in a demonstration against the Olympics" and "actually, he was mobilized for money" when he was interviewing a man in Tokyo. I confessed that I was doing it. "



In January, NHK broadcast an apology on BS1 because it was uncertain, and set up a research team to conduct interviews with related parties.



As a result, the man testified to the interview that he told the NHK director that he wanted to go to a demonstration against the Olympics, but since there was no confirmation that he actually participated, the research team said the contents of the subtitles. Determined to be wrong.



In addition, the director did not provide supportive coverage even though the information was ambiguous, the confirmation of his boss was insufficient, and the rules for checking were not followed.



NHK suspended the director in his 30s and the chief producer in his 40s, who belong to the Osaka base broadcasting station, for one month, saying that they deviated from the "NHK broadcasting guidelines" that set the basic guidelines for coverage and production. , Two bosses decided to disciplinary action for the full-time manager in his 50s on the 14th of suspension of work.



In addition, three executives, including the acting director of the NHK Osaka base broadcasting station, were disciplined.



In addition, Hideo Kado, Managing Director of the Osaka-based Broadcasting Station, will voluntarily return 10% of the executive compensation for two months.



In response to this problem, NHK has taken measures to prevent recurrence. ▽ Thorough rules to check whether facts are sufficiently confirmed at the time of interviews and production. ▽ Quality control including risk management for all departments involved in program production. We have assigned a person in charge of this and will hold study sessions at broadcasting sites nationwide.



NHK commented, "We apologize to all concerned parties and viewers. We will work to prevent recurrence by strengthening the check system and conducting thorough training, and will strive to restore trust."
