The Japanese Nuclear Crisis and the media.

Have you ever wondered why there is so little mention of the nuclear crisis at Fukushima even though there is massive radiation being emitted daily? Could there be a cover-up to prevent mass panic? Or have the newspapers just got bored of it? Any thoughts?

I think there has been a cover-up ever since the first day. Other news stories seem to have crowded out the news from Japan over the past week or so. News reporters and their bosses go where the interest is and right now it seems the masses are interested in other things. It's a shame though as what is happening in Japan is affecting all of us in one way or the other.

Yes the crisis in japan is not getting enough coverage.. Its quite a scary thought that what japan is experiencing now may also affect us in more ways than one.

It is either a well planned cover-up or the amount of radiation present is too great to allow people in to measure it! Whatever the case, I find it very disturbing. Would anyone actually have the courage to admit that they have destroyed all mankind? Because in my opinion that will happen sooner or later if we continue to use nuclear energy.

Hmm I don't think anyone will admit to nuclear disasters. I mean, look at Chernobyl..
