Almost 18 years in Tokyo. Seen all the crappy reporting by foreign “journalists” over the years. Trust only BBC World’s Chris Hogge – he lives in Tokyo. Disregard the majority of the sensationalized Fukushima “reporting”.
If you have a moment, please take a look at this article I wrote March 25 that explains why people in Japan are wearing masks, why the water is safe, when the power is off, and provides corrections to a number of the erroneous reports by the world media.
Op-Ed: Tokyo OK, foreign media’s sensational coverage shameful
