摘要

The 2nd U.S.-North Korea Summit between U.S.President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un was held in Hanoi,Vietnam on February 27 and 28,2019.However,no agreement was made despite high expectations before the summit.The author of this paper,who was involved in the press conference following the summit as an interpreter for a Japanese TV program in Tokyo,recognized that Trump,who often criticizes some media outlets,calling them“fake news”,handled the press respectfully.To answer the question why there is a gap between his attitudes toward various media outlets,this paper examines the interactions between the president and all 21 reporters who were allowed to ask him questions during the Hanoi press conference,focusing on their questions,the organizations they belonged to,and some personal details.President Trump’s extremely well-calculated media strategy is then revealed.
