Adam Housley, who reported from the area in 2011 following the
catastrophic triple-meltdown, said this morning that new
fuel leaks have been discovered…
He said that critics, including the U.S. military in 2011, have long
questioned whether Tokyo Electric Power Co. (TEPCO) and officials
have been providing accurate information on the severity of the
radiation… He added that critics are now questioning whether the
radiation has been this severe all along.

News video transcript excerpts,
Feb 8, 2017: “Experts
believe melted fuel is leaking inside the plant almost
daily… No one knew [in 2011] of the growing
threat which today only continues to get worse… Wow,
this is a crazy story…
What some people are saying is, ‘ Has it been this bad since the
beginning?’”
Washington
Post,
Feb 8, 2017: Could the radiation level be even higher? Possibly. The
530 sievert reading was recorded some distance from the melted fuel,
so in reality it could be 10 times higher than recorded, said
Hideyuki Ban, co-director of Citizens’ Nuclear Information Center.
From
the Washington Post today
TOKYO
— The utility company that operated the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear
plant in Japan — the one that went into triple meltdown after the
enormous 2011 earthquake and tsunami — has released some
jaw-dropping figures.
The
radiation level in the containment vessel of reactor 2 has reached as
high as 530 sieverts per hour, Tokyo Electric Power Co. — or Tepco,
as it’s known — said last week. This far exceeds the previous
high of 73 sieverts per hour recorded at the reactor following the
March 2011 disaster.

out truth from confusion regarding last
week’s major media echo chamber on Fukushima radiation levels.
Like a pebble can start an avalanche, a mis-translationcan
and did get blown up into a catastrophe.
