Right. You took the time to make a video showing the headline and you never clicked on the link until after doing so.
You are the only person. The only conspiracy theorist to have seen it. Right.

Well, because if the article were posted as shown it was inaccurate.
"Deadly Nuclear Fallout" (capitalized?)
"Will hit"
"Matter of hours"
I'm not convinced of the authenticity of the video.

Lol thank you, to be honest after the link that Phage gave I would say I pretty much believe you but the lack of evidence and witnesses made me pretty skeptical. But now we have 2 witnesses and a video and a article.
Knowing the media they were trying to install fear in a poorly written article or something.edit on 17-3-2011 by LetsBringIt because: Adding a line.
I agree with you about the inaccuracy, but the MSM is just as guilty as unfiltered media of spinning truth so it looks accurate to the unsuspecting swallower. I imagine sometimes this is inadvertent and corrected or cleaned out before much damage is done, but at other times it almost seems motivated to achieve a desired response. That's why I'm skeptical about everything I read no matter what kind of track record the source has.

Yes. High levels of fallout can be deadly. But there is no way that fallout which may reach North America on Friday (the product of the first low level leakage) could get any where near a "deadly" level.
"Matter of hours?" 24 of them? Ok.
I don't put sensationalism out of realm of possibility but the BBC isn't really known for it on this level. That weird capitalization "Deadly Nuclear Fallout", makes it really seem fishy.
