"Top officials from American health agencies said this week that Americans are in no danger from trace amounts of radiation being detected in this country's air, water or food supplies."
According to Thomas Frieden, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC - one of many US corporate controlled agencies):
"There is no threat to health in the US from radiation from Japan," when, in fact, the threat is real and increasing the longer the crisis persists.
A Final Comment
Times reporters and management represent wealth and power, willfully lying to suppress vital information detrimental to their interests, no matter the harm to readers who rely on journalism for truth.
Unfailingly, the "paper of record" won't provide it, nor does the entire corporate media establishment and other sources, co-opted by dubious funding to buy their cooperation, selling their souls and honor for a buck.
