  • Prime Minister Suga, Gender Equality and Rapport Speech: a Study of Speech Style
    IPRPD International Journal of Arts, Humanities & Social Science ISSN 2693-2547 (Print), 2693-2555 (Online) Volume 02; Issue no 06: June 08, 2021 Prime Minister Suga, Gender Equality and Rapport Speech: A Study of Speech Style Shoji Azuma 1 1 Department of World Languages and Cultures, University of Utah, USA Abstract Issues related to gender equality have been widely and globally discussed in settings such as politics, education, healthcare and the workplace, among others. In Japan, the Japanese government has been working very hard to increase the number of women involved in Japanese politics, with minimal progress to date. The present prime minister of Japan, Yoshihide Suga, has intentionally sought to bring attention to this issue. He has, for the first time, selected a female cabinet relations chief for his government. His appointment of a female to this post is unprecedented. Unfortunately, due to a recent ethical code violation by the newly appointed female appointee and role model of female leadership in Japan, he felt constrained to accept her resignation from the post. The present study explores Prime Minister Suga’s treatment of this gender-related issue by examining his personal interviews with the media and press reporters in his cabinet. The study finds that Suga falls short of adopting an emotive and rapport style of speech which in turn, fails to attract listeners’ and voters’ support. Keywords: Emotion, Gender, Rapport, Speech style, Japan 1. Introduction Since the post-war period, Japan has been trying to address the controversial issue of gender roles in Japanese society. One particular focus has targeted the state of women in politics and government at the national and local levels.

That’s still nowhere near competitor Fox News’ 2.0 rating (up 42% vs Nov ’11), with the news net tied with USA for the #2 spot in prime among cable nets. MSNBC’s Nov ratings soared 73% to a 1.1 for the month, also ahead of CNN. If reports are true and former NBCU CEO Jeff Zucker takes on the CNN pres role, he’s got some catching up to do. On the plus side, “Starting Point with Soledad O’Brien” had its best month since launching in Jan, “Erin Burnett Outfront” had its strongest month since launching in Oct ’11 and “AC360” at 8pm had its best month since launching in Aug ’11.

Last year, the NBA lockout delayed the start of the season until Dec 25. Through its first 7 game telecasts, the NBA on TNT is averaging a 1.8 US HH rating and more than 2.6 mil- lion total viewers— that’s +6% compared to the first 7 games last season.
