well it's a chance for her to advertise herself. all the little mahjong boys on twitter can retweet how sexy they think she is, and then more people will see her. of course there's the aspect that all these people telling her how she looks great will make her feel good (even though there's dozens of better looking women in the magazine mixed in with instructions on how to clean your leather shoes), but the main thing is that she gets herself out there, increasing her exposure. TV announcers and shit like that are chosen to feature on a show because people like them, not because they necessarily do something really well.

So basically: posing in a swimsuit is a good way to increase your popularity if you're a woman, and you need to be popular to land reporter/announcer gigs consistently. As I see it, it's directly connected to her livelihood, and all the personal human stuff is just a bonus.

Yeah, even fukuchinko said this on his blog:
>長年の濃い味付けの食生活によって、ふつうのグラビアをおかずにするのって厳しいんだが(;^ω^)
>Although after years of heavily spiced food, it's tough to use vanilla gravure as okazu(;^ω^). (TL note: okazu means both side dish and material for masturbation)
based chinko telling it like it is
