INTERVIEW: Charles Bonner, attorney for the USS Ronald Reagan sailors, on their lawsuit against TEPCO for radiation exposure after the March 11, 2011 earthquake and tsunami. PLUS: Eight more children diagnosed with thyroid cancer in Fukushima; TEPCO admits their radiation data is "wildly wrong" as new sources of radiation leaks keep showing up; Tokyo gets Abe-baby's hand-picked pro-nuke misogynist Masuzoe as anti-nuke vote gets split; Hawaii getting hit with radiation; kayakers reporting Fukushima radiation on their boat bottoms; and the pending influx of radioactive Pacific water from Fukushima will leave radwaste residue on west coast beaches.
