Anything that happens at a Nuke will be blown out of proportion by the press until they get to the point where they start intimating a cover-up prevents us from finding out the truth.
In Boston, over the last couple days, a man was admitted to Mass General with a fever and as a precaution was put in isolation as a precaution. Stop the presses!! EBOLA!! Man sick!! Ebola!! In isolation!! EBOLA!!.
So Mass General releases a statement after a day or two, saying the guy has Malaria. But the fucking TV news still have EBOLA!! as every other word out of their yaps. After all, we can't let the truth stand in the way of a good story.
