Breaking News: Japan Hit By Large Earthquake: Tsunami Warnings Issued

[AyatollahPies]

Watching Russia Today this morning, turned it on to be greeted by reactor 1 exploding!

 

Keep tabs on this, looks like this story will dominate the news for a while if it goes into emltdown and causes massive radioactive poisoning of the area around it. This is turning into Chernobyl 2 and more reactors are indicating leaks after the earthquake.

 

I've been watching Russia Today too, in fact I tend to watch it more than BBC and Sky news. It doesn't focus on the "Brit missing in Tsunami" side of things. As if the lives of the thousands of Japanese are not as important as that of a fellow Brit.
