Wake-up Call
https://laudyms.wordpress.com/2011/05/14/neo-censorship-one-story-at-a-time-onslaught-submerges-and-exhausts/

The news media is into one-story-at-a-time mode these days with 24/7 speculation and mindless blather until all are sick and tired of the story du jour. Then it’s on to the next one!

While this is happening all other news is submerged or omitted (neo-censorship). And after they have moved on, there is little demand for updates or follow-up, even when the events are of major significance.

Here’s one example of news we need to know- but probably don’t: (you may have your own examples- send them in and I’ll add them on)
TEPCO now confirms nuclear meltdown in Fukushima reactor No. 1

May 12, 2011 by Mike Adams (NaturalNews)
TEPCO has now publicly admitted it wasn’t telling the truth about the severity of the damage to Fukushima reactor No. 1. We’re now being told what we’ve suspected all along — that nuclear fuel rods in that reactor are totally exposed and have suffered a nuclear meltdown, releasing vast amounts of radiation comparable to Chernobyl. As Bloomberg now reports, the water level in reactor No. 4 is one meter below the fuel assembly itself. This means, of course, that the water isn’t high enough to cover the fuel rods, which is why those fuel rods have suffered a nuclear meltdown.
