The claim
杉田水脈氏「『民族衣装のコスプレおばさん』なんて投稿していない」
Original review summary
The review says the denial is contradicted by an archived record of Sugita’s February 2016 blog post, which included the phrase about women in traditional clothing. It also reports that Sugita acknowledged in a November 2022 parliamentary committee hearing that she had written the quoted passage.[S1]
