The U. S. A has been considered a developed country which advocates liberalism. But, as Noam Chomsky points out, in fact the manipulation of public opinion by the media has been carried out under the pretense of freedom of speech. The task of this paper is to explain how the media of the U. S. has successfully managed to reconcile the manipulation of public opinion with the condition of freedom of speech. I approach the question by considering New York Times reportage on Okinawa from 1995 to 2000. In this period, following the well-known 1995 rape of Japanese schoolgirl by U. S. Marines, the tension between human rights and U. S. world strategy reached crisis level in Okinawa. Correspondingly, the New York Times sought to adopt a position between two. In the first part of this paper, I will analyze reportage on the rape incident, examining the ways in which the New York Times was able to balance out the numerous factors involved so as to come down on the side of existing U. S. polocy.
