Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Expand language Isoko Mochizuki (Japanese: 望月 衣塑子, Mochizuki Isoko; born 1975)[1] is a Japanese newspaper journalist for Chunichi Shimbun (Tokyo Shimbun), based Nagoya.
Mochizuki is the inspiration for the film The Journalist (Japanese: Shimbun Kisha; 2019),[2] directed by Michihito Fujii and loosely based on a book of the same name by Mochizuki.[3] She stars in the documentary film Documentary of the Journalist (2019) by Tatsuya Mori.[4]
Justin McCurry wrote in The Guardian that "Mochizuki specialises in a brand of robust questioning that many regard as the stock in trade of political reporters in Britain. In Japan, though, she is a rarity in a media landscape where avoiding confrontation is often accepted as the price for continued access to important government sources."[5] In March 2019, about 600 people rallied in support of her at a protest in front of the prime minister's office.[6][7] In 2018, she co-wrote a book with former The New York Times correspondent Martin Fackler about access journalism and media independence in Japan's major newspapers.[8]
Personal life
Mochizuki has worked for the regional newspaper Tokyo Shimbun since 2000.[9] She has two children.[7]
