He's the producer and so he has the final call when it comes to a lot of stuff. The executive, Yamazaki or whatever his name is, would have the absolute final call on everything, but Tsunku IS the one who decides a lot. He is the one (while consulting with the executive of course) who chooses the girls for example. Also he's the one who decides (probably while consulting the choreographer) whether to add/remove things from dances. And setlists for concerts etc (probably also with the managers though) is something that he does, too.
Line distribution is definitely Tsunku's table. He is in there during the whole mixdown process too. He's talked about it both once and twice.
As far as PR and radio/TV/concert and such goes though, that's the actual management department, no doubt. But there's most likely no way that Tsunku does not know about it. He obviously wouldn't keep track of who's where at what date doing what concert. But he has a lot to do with pretty much everything.
