Ann Coulter infamously touted that a little radiation is good for people.
This deadly attitude permeates msn broadcasts, which blithely report on shopping and sports, but neglect their right and duty to help US know that right now people are being killed by radiation from nuclear power and every time they and their kids go through Michael Chertoff's fortune-making radiation body scanners and strip searches.
If we love our lives and our families, we have the right and duty to end the deadly killing industries of nuclear-focused corporations. Particularly in Washington State, and on the West Coast, we and our children are facing our own Chernobyl:

Physicians for Social Responsibility notes:
"According to the National Academy of Sciences, there are no safe doses of radiation. Decades of research show clearly that any dose of radiation increases an individual’s risk for the development of cancer."[poster's emphasis].
“There is no safe level of radionuclide exposure, whether from food, water or other sources. Period,” said Jeff Patterson, DO, immediate past president of Physicians for Social Responsibility. “Exposure to radionuclides, such as iodine-131 and cesium-137, increases the incidence of cancer. For this reason, every effort must be taken to minimize the radionuclide content in food and water.”
“Consuming food containing radionuclides is particularly dangerous. If an individual ingests or inhales a radioactive particle, it continues to irradiate the body as long as it remains radioactive and stays in the body,”said Alan H. Lockwood, MD, a member of the Board of Physicians for Social Responsibility.
