| Apr 20, 2012 at 10:28 | comment | added | RomanSt | @Oddthinking I’ll be happy for this to get deleted iff the accepted answer gets deleted too: it’s equally dated. Besides, while this disaster was second only to Chernobyl (among nuclear disasters), the disaster at Chernobyl was far, far worse. | |

| Mar 15, 2011 at 13:19 | comment | added | jwenting | another major factor is the political leaning of most of the major press, which is heavily alligned with the anti-nuclear lobby. They WANT a disaster to use as ammo against nuclear power in general, just as they did with Chernobyl (when what happened there was both less severe in the long term than presented and impossible to replicate in reactors in the west because of the fundamental differences in reactor design that were willfully omitted from press reports). | |
