International news stories

to the public basically rely on translation. Most of this translation is done
not by translators, but by journalists with practically no training in
translation. What happens when the norms of journalism and those of translation
clash? In this book, the author, a trained conference interpreter and former
international journalist, investigates translator decisions in the practice of Japanese
news translation. Her extensive analysis of texts from six major Japanese
newspapers and interviews with Japanese “journalators” focuses on direct
quotations, where accuracy is a journalistic priority but can generate loss of
communication impact if implemented rigidly. She argues that many shifts from
accuracy can be explained as risk management strategies. When News
Travels East provides invaluable insight from an insider about news
translation in Japan and beyond and paves the way for further research in the
field.
