The Japanese news text is interesting to study to find out and describe the relationship between the elements that make up a coherent and logical text. This is also what underlies the author to examine the relationship between the elements that make up news texts in Japanese, which aims to explain and describe the relationship between the elements that make up news texts in Japanese. The research data were analyzed using content analysis with the results of the research (1) British English text as shown in paragraphs (1), ( 2) and (3); news writers only use the name of the institution, the name of the area, and the name of the person. References are not used, (2) the word seifu is substituted by sushou'prime minister'. Nichi'the 19th' is substituted by jitsu'on the same day', the word chiji'governor' is substituted by osakafu'Osaka government', (3) there are the sentences Tokyo and Hyogo ni tsuite no yosei o kanto. The conclusion in this study is that the specificity of the news text in Japanese is a reference that refers to the name of a person, but the name of the person, the name of the object, and the name of the institution are not used.
