You mean this NY Daily News?

I've seen some outrageous things in the media about nuclear power and radiation. But I don't think the extra coverage is unwarranted. The quake and tsunami are over and done with, all that's left is the cleanup. It's a static story, interesting from a human interest perspective, but has no staying power. The nuclear plant story OTOH is still developing - nobody knows how it'll end. That creates tension and drama, which is what sells papers and gets viewers.

Jim Kramer on Mad Money also noted how nuclear is no longer viable and that coal and natural gas is now and that we should invest in those... all on MSNBC.

I really wish people advocating those technologies could somehow be held accountable for all the deaths they cause. Those power sources kill way more people than nuclear. It's like saying because if we walk the nuclear road we might fall off and get muddy, so we should instead walk in the mud.

Obama and Steven Chu seem to be keeping a level head about this at least.
