VIDEO – Fukushima whistleblower

GE Nuclear Plant Inspector/Whistleblower Kei Sugaoko Speaks About Fukushima, GE &  Obama http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJjbNw07OUAGeneral Electric nuclear plant inspector Kei Sugaoka was one of the inspectors at the Fukushima Daiichi plant in 2000. He noticed a crack in the steam dryer which he videotaped. He was later ordered by Tokyo Electric Power Company TEPCO to edit this part of the tape which is illegal in the United States. He went public and some TEPCO managers were fired. He thought that things would change but they have not. Additionally, as a result of being a whistleblower he was also laid off by General Electric and has been struggling to get the truth out about these dangerous plants. Sugaoka has inspected plants throughout the world including in Taiwan and Europe.
