I respect that the broadcaster took the time to clarify that the images where not in relation to what he had said about the nuclear power plants.

[@xaero76]

Yeah, you do not see that from the US news because they thrive off of speculation... the Broadcaster did a great job!

[@funkydozer]

If that was the BBC, the whole article would’ve been about the power plant with stock footage of fire and explosions

[@OregonCrow]

He has to dumb it down for you re re's.

[@user-gt5hu6ot4m]

The nuclear power plant during the Great East Japan Earthquake was destroyed not by the earthquake but by the tsunami. So, if it should be destroyed, it would still happen from now, but the magnitude at that time was 9, and this time it is 7.4. When the magnitude decreases by 2, the amount of energy decreases by 1000 times. Both shouldn't be talked about in the same breath.

[@chrisb.2028]

I was about to comment about it, bad timing from the video and the script, glad it was clarified.

[@nikuage04]

I am a resident of Japan. Earthquake early warnings have been sounding for two hours. A tsunami of about 1m has already reached the Sea of Japan side. The sun has already set, and high tide is about to arrive. I think we will know the current state of the damage by tomorrow. Please pray for Japan's safety. This is a translated Japanese text, so I'm sure there are some grammatical errors, but I'm sorry. 🙇

[@brucealmighty9877]

Stay safe...

[@frankfielder]

It was perfect translation. Will pray as you requested.

I think Thailand will also affect the tsunami even Indian coastal towns get Tsunami warning alert so definitely Thailand should be careful

[@ba-gg6jo]

Far better information than the BBC. Thank you.

Because the BBC lie by omission all the time.

Fortunately, Japan and Greece, two of the most seismic regions of the planet, have a very high percentage of high-quality buildings and houses, so damages are always insignificant, with only a few exceptions till now.

[@Hao-Japanese-reallife]

From Japan, we are overwhelmed by the big earthquake even 1/1. Whether we live in the nearest place hit by that, we are praying. I hope everyone is safe🙏 Today, Ishikawa Prefecture, where a major earthquake and tsunami occurred, is famous for the Kanazawa 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art, which houses numerous modern art pieces created both domestically and internationally since 1980. It is renowned as a tourist destination

[@whimzee8866]

And to add to the stress of another tsunami its becoming night - here's hoping nature decides to be kind today

[@RebelsInc969]

We have shown Mother Nature no mercy she will show us none

Happy new year😊

[@johnwashburn7423]

I suit the comment respecting the broadcaster being forthcoming about the fire. Here in the U.S. the outlets would have let that misconception stand without explanation.

[@mjtreasureheartstoyscollect]

Pray for all friends in Japan to be safe and sound from the ongoing earthquake. Sad for such happening on our New Year Day..

Well respect for not hyping it up by letting us know the fire wasn’t the nuclear plant, but yet showing it to get drama in the first instance negates it.

I live in Japan, and earthquake warnings have been going off for two hours. A tsunami of about 1m has already hit the Sea of Japan side. The sun has set, and high tide is approaching. We'll likely learn about the damage tomorrow. Please keep Japan in your thoughts and prayers. This is a translated Japanese text, so I apologize if there are any grammatical errors.

Why are they showing footage from different events... if you need to clarify the burning building isn't the nuclear power plant then don't use old footage.

[@user-ns8yu7tl5g]

今回の地震では特に石川県と富山県で甚大な被害が出ています。しかし停電などにより現地の詳しい情報を得ることが難しい状況です。日本は現在冬で被災地の気温はとても低いです。　日本より

[@chrisbishop4671]

Why build nuclear power plants on a coastline??

[@Y-i_i-Y]

Nuclear power generation requires large amounts of water for cooling, so power plants are built along coastlines where large amounts of water are easily available.

Really unfortunate

[@davidlawrence8803]

So what was the fire? Probably not even in Japan Typical fear based reporting.

[@Alloneword-cp2xw]

The fire was a fire caused by the earthquake. They had every right to show it, as it's what is happening there. You're getting angry for NO reason. Grow up.

[@seymorbutts1027]

Yes...just include wetsuit and tanks.

[@kap849]

Also I highly doubt that Ishikawa, Toyama and Niigata were on your itinerary. And if they were, by the time you get here in March, things in those areas will be back to normal. I personally was planning a trip to those three prefectures in summer and I'll still likely go.
