Do any of you know supposed formerly licensed reactor operator and
nuclear engineer Chris Harris who is appearing with someone called Dr
Deagle who is spreading the official "they are all lying to you" line
of the anti-nuclear propagandists?

Nuclear engineer warns on articles that downplay Fukushima health effects

by Christina MacPherson

Nuclear Engineer: It’s a little alerting to see this many articles
downplaying Fukushima health effects — You have to think, why is this
happening? — Are they going to walk away from reactors and say sorry,
there’s nothing we can do? (VIDEO)Chris Harris, former licensed Senior
Reactor Operator and engineer, Jan. 16, 2014 (at 21:30 in):

This is not the first time I’ve seen an article lately about
downplaying the health effects that we’re seeing due to any kind of
elevated radiation that is coming from Fukushima, or from other
sources that I’m not aware of. The whole problem is — it’s not that
this [by itself] is a problem — the problem is, I’m seeing more and
more of these kind of articles coming out […]

I think there’s misleading on both sides. It’s a little alerting when
you start seeing many articles coming out downplaying the health
effects. You have to kind of think, ‘Why is this happening?’ I’m
wondering, is it because someone is going to start saying that there’s
really nothing that they can do?

Maybe Tepco is saying that, especially since Tepco last week decided
to change the name of their company and start going into the buying
and selling of electrical generation. […] Remember, a long time ago I
said I wouldn’t be surprised if Tepco got up and walked away from the
mess saying, ‘Sorry guys, there’s nothing we can do, see you later.’

Some recent examples include:

New York Times: Fukushima Radiation (Still) Poses No California Risk
L.A. Times: West Coast radiation from Fukushima disaster poses no
risk, experts say
San Francisco Chronicle: Coast getting little radiation from Fukushima disaster
Fox San Diego: Experts say West Coast radiation from Fukushima
disaster poses no risk
NPR Affiliates: Scientists: Stop Worrying About Fukushima Radioactivity In Fish
Times-Standard: Gov’t officials say radiation not a threat to West Coast
