    Yes, this seems likely.

    However -

    It is a simple thing to send a drone to measure the radiation levels at Fukushima and elsewhere in Japan. It is equally simple to find out what the radiation levels are elsewhere in Japan. And what is happening to the cities that were evacuated for nearly 40 miles around Fukushima. It is a simple matter to say if the food and plants are contaminated. And it is a simple matter to tell us if the tons of nuclear material is still there or in the atmosphere and the ocean.

    But don't hold your breath. The answers never come.

Perhaps the media simply doesn't want to expose their cameramen and reporters to unsafe levels of radiation for on location reporting. And analysis may not be conclusive enough yet to make it any different than when we last heard. Or maybe the initial "event" is over and now the recovery process has moved on from news media into a new genre of Scientific American, National Geographic, Dateline, 60-Minutes, etc.

    It IS odd though. A conspiracy theory is downright scary.

    Recent news make one seriously question the integrity of reporting of the nuclear accident at Fukushima. Were there no nuclear experts who could foresee the scale of the accident?

    It now appears that three of the reactors experienced full meltdown soon after the Tsunami, that total radiation released is at least the same as at Chernobyl, and that considerable radioactive waste is finding its way into sewerage treatment plants.
