Dutchroll et al you sound just like bradleymarsh (and the MSM and a few Pollies) on here last year insisting the world was about to end from Bird Flu
You want to slam Bolt?
At least he gets his information from the very top nuclear physicists in Australia not some dumb bitch from a single issue advocacy group that is against nuclear energy in any way shape or form like the women on 3AW a few days ago claiming 100s of 1000s and probably MILLIONS would die as a result of the leaking radiation at Fukushima.
How many people died as a direct result of radiation exposure at Chernobyl?
Approximately 60.
How many from the MSM hype?
Couple of 100,000 babies aborted in western Europe because the parents were terrified they would be born deformed. Million more people horribly mentally effected not by radiation but by irrational fears perpetrated by the 24 hr news cycle. The areas surrounding Chernobyl are now natural wonderlands abandoned by panicked Govts.
How many people died as a direct result of radiation poisoning post Hiroshima AND Nagasaki in the 65 years
since those bombings?
Less than 500.
Slightly over 100000 died as a direct result of blast and heat and immediate effects of severe radiation poisoning...less than half the number of Japanese civilians killed in a single conventional bombing raid a few nights before the Hiroshima raid.
Close to 100,000 survivors are still being closely monitored as is anyone that was within cooee of Chernobyl or 3 mile Island.
There were 24 Australian POWs within 1.5km of ground zero at Nagasaki, all survived the blast and most lived to be VERY old men.
Within just a few years after the raids on Hiroshima and Nagasaki you could not tell they had been bombed at all - they were thriving cities with people going about their normal lives. Now just 65 years later they are REALLY thriving cities with no abnormal patterns of cancer evident.
Now if a direct nuclear bombing raid on two cities is such a relative non event (tragic though it was) why do we have the MSM getting 'hard' over a relatively contained minor leak from a damaged power station when 10s of 1000s of people are missing/dead after the worst earth quake and tsunami in god knows how long?
Left wing anti nuclear political agenda?
No couldn't be, could it?
Can you point to a MSM scare campaign that has EVER come to pass?
No - thought not.
The 24 hr news cycle hurts more people than anything I can think of short of sundry dictators - which as often as not are fawned over by the same MSM.
