(10,440 posts)who are trying to put a less than apocalyptic spin on this. We have had our arguments. I kind of trust them, but not completely, just like most of the news reports coming out. How do you keep track? What is real and what isn't? I've seen the same story, in the past two days, told in five different ways, but it is the same story. One that I put out there six months ago. There is a lot of hysteria. Is it warranted? Not sure on that.
I tried here to do a FUKU inclusive thread but I got tired of fighting over every little thing so I lost interest.
You know goddamn well that the mdia is not about to report anything negative unless that news reaches critical mass. The news media are the people involved in nukes, energy and everything. GE owns media and nuke tech.
Look at the Japan Times over the past two years. How it has changed. Now it is a horrible newspaper, a Mcpaper if you will, when it was a good source for news about FUKU. Now nothing except a press release that is cleverly worded.
So this guy and his "people' are out there, using geiger counters and trying to tell the story. A good part of his stories come straight from TEPCO's mouth. Look back too for something that are going on. Something gets posted ther all the time and in reality, the news is moving very fast there. it is obvious that there is current problem that did not exist last week going on....
