#1 Strange Things Happening On The Sun
They're not strange to scientists. The nightly news is not aimed at scientists.
#2 Fukushima
The crisis was extensively covered live as it happened. It is often revisited in feature articles. Do you want them to run a ticker along the bottom of the screen 24/7 showing radiation readings from all the neighboring prefectures? What would you do with the information?
#3 Rise In Volcanic Activity Around The World
Again, the eruptions are covered extensively as they happen. Scientists don't find the activity unusual.
#4 Strange Sounds In The Sky
I'm surprised that the media isn't actively promoting more internet hoaxes.
#5 Increase In Global Earthquakes
Yet again, earthquakes are covered extensively as they happen. Scientists don't find the activity unusual.
#6 Crazy Tornado Outbreaks
Once more, the tornadoes are extensively covered as they happen. The causes for their increasing frequency and violence are the subject of many feature articles and documentaries. Nova ran two this month.
#7 Obama Signs Disturbing Executive Order
Some people find anything Obama does disturbing.
#8 Evacuation Drills At U.S. Public Schools
These are not news. Deranged gunmen shooting students is news. The one will hopefully prevent the other.
#9 Giant Sinkholes
Reported as they happen. They are nothing new.
#10 Mass Deaths
These may actually be receiving too much exposure on the news. Nature has cycles, it is not always obvious why certain things happen the way they do. Further study is called for, not panic.
What the tenor of the video suggests is that the mainstream media are not trying to generate enough sheer terror and panic. That's what the Internet is for.

#1 - Normal. Read a science website.
#2. - Year old news that was covered like crazy when it was fresh. New developments are covered by the media.
#3 - Normal. Read a science website
#4 - Fake, not newsworthy
#5 - Normal. Read a science website
#6 - Normal. Read a science website
#7 - Disturbing for who? Also, this was covered by the media.
#8 - Nothing sinister here, it's for safety
#9 - Last year's news, explainable by weather conditions
#10 - Normal. Read a science website
So, to break it down... the media either already has, or is still covering these stories, and the ones that aren't covered are because they're explainable with a little research.

I wonder why these procedures seem to vary from state to state. I have received memos from my children's school stating that in accordance with federal guidelines, emergency drills will be taken place at the school on such and such dates. But all the school seems to require is to have a plan formulated and implemented in case of a lockdown (such as Columbine) type of emergency where the whole school is locked and the teachers gather the children in a corner with the lights out and the blinds drawn. Until they get the okay they are to stay that way until further notice. There is nothing about taking them on a bus to another location although they have had bus drills on how to safely evacuate their bus in certain emergencies.
I would be very suspicious about why they would evacuate the children to a secret location? Wouldn't that be more dangerous in a Columbine type of event if the kids were to leave the building as opposed to a full lockdown in the school?edit on 5/17/2012 by itsallmaya because: spelling error

You are right. We actually have two drills we practice. One is just as you describe; we huddle in the corner with the doors locked and the blinds drawn shut. That is for an intruder on campus.
However, we also do the emergency evacuation drill. I'm assuming that would probably be used for a bomb threat, gas leak in the building, what have you. The kids have even practiced running in a zigzag...isn't that sad?
Federal government mandates the schools have a crisis plan in place, but the individual states (and perhaps school systems) have final say about what goes in the crisis plan.
#1 Yeah your right the nightly news is not aimed at scientists its aimed at people who want to know and want to hear it on the news. The suns poles have shifting a year early and it is possible that its effecting earth and this was not covered on the news.
#2 I have had people answer to me that they wish they had radioactive information on the telly to know how bad stuff is!
#3 excuse me I am watching the news now and all I see is Greece, the eruo, the Olympics, the stupid American election hold on! Popocatepetl is #ing up and # loads more so # off!
#4 Disinformation from the strange sounds in the sky happens all the time the increase of the sounds are far to great to be hoaxes you are just a sheep that listens to the mainstream media.
#5 They are not covered as they happen are you really that stupid.
#6 Not all of them are covered most of these are only briefly covered what about the UK tornadoes?
#7 I agree with you on that one lol.
#8 why is this not news are you really that much of a sheep.
#9 the 300ft wide sinkhole in Sweden was not covered!
#10 mass deaths are only half what your being told.
Who Rules America?
THERE IS NO GREATER POWER in the world today than that wielded by the manipulators of public opinion in America. No king or pope of old, no conquering general or high priest ever disposed of a power even remotely approaching that of the few dozen men who control America's mass media of news and entertainment.
Their power is not distant and impersonal; it reaches into every home in America, and it works its will during nearly every waking hour. It is the power that shapes and molds the mind of virtually every citizen, young or old, rich or poor, simple or sophisticated.
The mass media form for us our image of the world and then tell us what to think about that image. Essentially everything we know—or think we know—about events outside our own neighborhood or circle of acquaintances comes to us via our daily newspaper, our weekly news magazine, our radio, or our television.
It is not just the heavy-handed suppression of certain news stories from our newspapers or the blatant propagandizing of history-distorting TV "docudramas" that characterizes the opinion-manipulating techniques of the media masters. They exercise both subtlety and thoroughness in their management of the news and the entertainment that they present to us.
For example, the way in which the news is covered: which items are emphasized and which are played down; the reporter's choice of words, tone of voice, and facial expressions; the wording of headlines; the choice of illustrations—all of these things subliminally and yet profoundly affect the way in which we interpret what we see or hear.
On top of this, of course, the columnists and editors remove any remaining doubt from our minds as to just what we are to think about it all. Employing carefully developed psychological techniques, they guide our thought and opinion so that we can be in tune with the "in" crowd, the "beautiful people," the "smart money." They let us know exactly what our attitudes should be toward various types of people and behavior by placing those people or that behavior in the context of a TV drama or situation comedy and having the other TV characters react in the Politically Correct way.

For one.... Nothing is normal. Define normal? This planet is nothing but normally changing and so is its inhabitants.
There are a lot of reasons for concern and the one that concerns me the most is earthquakes in diverse places. Not really cool with fracking! Just my opinion of course.
The planet will out last us though. She has been around for a long time but hey, anythings possible.
Our Sun and the rest of space has not been observed long enough for me to say what is constant and what is not. I for now think everything is constantly chaning and that is the only thing I know for certain.
The media is bought and paid for.... Anyone who doesnt know this should talk to reporters... They will tell you.
The ones who come out and tell the truth to us are called crazy by the ones who live in fear. If something is said that creates uncertainty then they are deemed crazy. Lol maybe they are crazy.... Crazy enough to tell the truth.
And for those posters that use logic as a argument... Why?
Whos logic?
Yours? Ours? Theirs? His? Hers? I almost want to start a rant about it but I dont want to hear my rantful thoughts either so .... Guess I will change my mind. Lol
Change is in the air.... Thats certain.
