The Asahi Shimbun (朝日新聞, IPA: [aꜜsaçi ɕimbɯɴ], literally Morning Sun Newspaper, English: Asahi News) is one of the five national newspapers in Japan. Its circulation, which was 7.96 million for its morning edition and 3.1 million for its evening edition as of June 2010, was second behind that of Yomiuri Shimbun. The company has its registered headquarters in Osaka.
When Shin-ichi Hakojima was CEO, they tied up with the International Herald Tribune and published an English-language newspaper, the International Herald Tribune/Asahi Shimbun. It continued from April 2001 until February 2011. It was replaced Asahi's previous English-language daily, the Asahi Evening News. In 2010, this partnership was dissolved due to unprofitability and the Asahi Shimbun now operates the Asia & Japan Watch online portal for English readers. The Tribune (now known as The International New York Times) cooperates with Asahi on Aera English, a glossy magazine for English learners.
One of Japan's oldest and largest national daily newspapers, the Asahi Shimbun began publication in Osaka on 25 January 1879 as a small-print, four-page illustrated paper that sold for one sen (a hundredth of a yen) a copy, and had a circulation of approximately 3,000 copies. The three founding officers of a staff of twenty were Kimura Noboru (company president), Murayama Ryōhei (owner), and Tsuda Tei (managing editor). The company's first premises were at Minami-dōri, Edobori in Osaka. On 13 September of the same year, Asahi printed its first editorial.
Asahi (朝日, 旭, or あさひ) means "morning sun" in Japanese and may refer to:

One of the most contentious issues facing Korea and Japan is that of the wartime use of women as sex slaves. But what happens when a major paper recants its stories? It’s one conversation taking place in Asia… now. In the 1980s, the Asahi Shimbun reported, without thorough investigation, that Seiji Yoshida forcibly took local women from South Korea’s Jeju Island to serve as comfort women, or as the UN refers to them as enforced sex slaves. “We have judged that Mr. Yoshida’s statement, in which he said that he took comfort women by force from Jeju Island, was fake, and we retract the article. At the time we could not figure out that the statement was fake,” wrote the Asahi Shimbun recently. What’s the background on Seiji Yoshida’s contribution to the Asahi Shimbun and the effect of its r...

The Japan News by The Yomiuri Shimbun August 12,2014 The report added fuel to anti-Japan sentiment in South Korea, and also became a basis of misperception of Japan spreading through the world. In its Tuesday morning edition, the Asahi concluded—for the first time—that Yoshida’s remarks were baseless, and finally retracted the newspaper’s reports regarding the remarks. 報告書は、韓国で反日感情に燃料を追加し、さらに世界を広げ、日本の誤った認識の基礎となった。その火曜日の朝刊では、朝日を締結 - は初めて、という吉田さんの発言は根拠のないようで、最終的に発言に関する新聞の報告を撤回した。

05.08.2015 with Journalist Takashi Uemura Reporting on "Comfort Women" The Experiences of a Journalist Now Fighting a Backlash Uemura Takashi, a former reporter of the Asahi Shimbun, is currently an adjunct lecturer at Hokusei Gakuen University in Sapporo. In 1991, while a reporter for the Asahi, he wrote two articles on Kim Hak-sun, the first “comfort woman” to come forward to tell her story. Because of these two articles, Uemura has been the target of denunciations by nationalists. He has been labeled "the reporter who fabricated the 'comfort woman' issue" and denounced by nationalists as a “traitor.” Such bashing took a critical turn for the worse in 2014, to the extent that he and his family risk losing their right to a livelihood.
