More on IAEA's "Re-Criticality at Fukushima Plant": Bloomberg Japan vs Bloomberg US

That news is there in Bloomberg Japan's site in Japanese, which is basically what CNN reported in their 2nd update. But it is nowhere to be found on Bloomberg US site, yet. Interesting.

From Bloomberg Japan (in Japanese; 4:40AM JST 3/31/2011)

IAEA原子力安全局:福島第一原発、局所的に再臨界の可能性も(1)

  3月30日(ブルームバーグ):国際原子力機関(IAEA)は30日のウィーンでの記者会見で、東京電力福島第1原子力発電について、「再臨界」の可能性もあるとみて、分析作業を進めていることを明らかにした。

On March 30, IAEA disclosed in their press conference in Vienna that there is a possiblity that Tokyo Electric Fukushima I Nuclear Power Plant has achieved "re-criticality", and IAEA are proceeding with analysis.

 IAEA原子力安全局担当のデニス・フローリー事務次長は30日、「最終判断ではない」と発言。「局所的に起こる可能性があり、放出が増える可能性もある」と述べた。

IAEA nuclear safety director Denis Flory said "It is not IAEA's final assesment" He also said, “This may happen locally and possibly increase the releases.”

Bloomberg Japan's article says at the bottom of the article that it has been translated, supposedly from English. But as I said above, I can't find it at Bloomberg US site.

Oh I forgot! Fukushima I Nuclear Power Plant's accidents are so "over-hyped" outside Japan and that the US media should "apologize" for over-hyping! My bad..

So far, as of 5:47AM JST on March 31 in Japan, NOTHING on Kyodo News, Yomiuri, Asahi, Nikkei, Mainichi, Sankei. Only Bloomberg Japan.
