26 January 2012 When it was someone else’s problem (Chernobyl), Japan was telling the truth about the effect of radiation, particularly on children. Here’s Tokyo Brown Tabby’s translation and captioning of a TV program from 1993. Ironically, the female newscaster has morphed into one of the strongest proponents (even today) of nuclear power generation. The journalist on the right has remained a journalist; he was seen investigating and reporting from the high-radiation areas in Fukushima, right after Reactor 1 blew up at Fukushima I Nuclear Power Plant. Tabby’s description of the YouTube video:

This video is from a Japanese evening news program broadcast on Nihon TV, seven years after the Chernobyl accident (around 1993). I hope the families in Fukushima who still hesitate to voluntarily evacuate their children will watch this and change their minds. The original video is at: http://youtu.be/tWWICnIQE9k. The German version is at 007bratsche’s channel: http://youtu.be/_9F9M1Sq7KI. The French version is at kna60’s channel: http://youtu.be/oWvQT6ei8C0.
