I think its mostly just fear mongering to get more news viewers...take it with a grain of salt.
I think your right. We've long since crossed the line where news is less about reporting the news and more about getting people to read the news. And the best way to do that is to cause fear.

What's the distance between Japan and California? Exactly. I remember Chernobyl's effects were felt in Europe, mostly in grain and cattle, but I don't recall people moving out of Europe to escape anything. Besides I'm done producing kids.
