Japanese people's sensory security was once very satisfactory. But since 1994 it grew worse straightly. Why? I analyzed the articles and editorials of the main national newspapers since 1990. 1 found that the articles about murder cases enlarged more than the cases actually increased, especially their frequency of appearance on each front page increased surprisingly. The related editorials also increased more and more. Their insistence became intolerance. These trends are one of the results of their efforts of making "intelligible and interesting space" to win their survival race in the overflowing market of newspapers. If we are tossed not by the actual security situation but by the informed one, we must be afraid that journalism cannot play a role to make our society safe and peace in truth.
