Reading this articles was painful. For two reasons:
1.) What happened to the personnel of the Aircraft Carrier.
2.) The murder of terminology. "Tokyo Electric Power also knew that radioactivity was leaking at a rate of 400 tons a day into the North Pacific, according to the lawsuit and Japanese officials."
The fuck is something like this supposed to mean? Radioactivity is a substance property. It can't just leak. I guess they wanted to express that water contaminated with radioactive substances was leaking with a rate of 400 tons/day, but as someone studying Radiation protection this really hurt to read :(
