RE: Dateline NBC TMI story - A different evaluation

["Jacobus, John (OD/ORS)" <jacobusj@ors.od.nih.gov>]

And I suppose the next feature on Dateline, which is on the shooter who

fired from the tower at the University of Texas, is to frighten people about

going to a university?  Or to be afraid of walking near tall towers? Or to

going to Texas?



The purpose of these shows is to attract viewers, entertain them (?) and

hope they buy the sponsors products.  There is a propensity on this list

server to think that anything that is not pro-nuclear is a plot.  Look at

the show for what it was, not what you think it is.

This production was clearly a politically motivated effort to induce further

unfounded fears of a beneficial technology that has been improved vastly

beyond that which actually worked (despite human intervention to override

its controls) prior to the improvements implemented post-TMI!
