What is Tokyo Rose?
1.
1. Identity given, by the United States Military during World War II, to the anonymous female broadcasters on a English language Japanese radio show called "The Zero hour". The show was managed by the Japanese military and its content was geared to demoralize the potential US troops listening in. Contrary to popular belief of the US media, there was never a person named Tokyo Rose, nor fictional character, or even a nickname. Simply an ID, like John Doe, given to the nameless female broadcasters.
The term, though, did begin to affix to one individual broadcaster named Iva Ikuko Toguri, who was actually a US citizen. During the "Jap Scare," many citizens of Japanese decent were sent to relocation camps, or in Iva's case, deported to Japan. The Japanese government saw her merely as a US citizen and promptly put her in captivity and forced her (cause she spoke English well) to air on this radio show under the alias "Orphan Ann". Iva made 340 broadcasts like this. Though, Iva knew something the Japanese didn't know, sarcasm.
The Japanese language is unable to detect sarcastic tones, as it is a tonal language on its own. Iva was the only broadcaster who would say what she was told to say, but in a near comedic sarcastic tone, which US troops actually gained moral from.
After the war was over, Japan sent Iva back to the US where she was tried and convicted for treason and was fines $10,000 as well as being sent to prison for a period of 10 years, based on the severity of the crime.
Despite numerous denied parole attempts she did eventually get out three years early in 1956 on good behavior, only to have her ordeal followed by many deportation hearings. It wasn't until 1977 that President Gerald Ford granted Iva a full pardon. To this day Iva has received no restitution for her encarceration nor even an apology from her nation of birth.
