Fish with 254,000 Bq/kg Cesium Was Caught Right at Fukushima I Nuke Plant, Not "Near Fukushima"

(UPDATE) True to its tabloid form, UK's Daily Mail reports the news, which clearly steals the lines from Zero Hedge calling the fish "Mike the Murasoi", or "Murasai" as the writer Mark Prigg misquotes in the article text. The writer fails to credit Zero Hedge though, and fails to quote Le Monde or AFP who spread the meme of "fish caught in the bay near the plant". Some journalism.

==========================

"Fish was caught near Fukushima" is how France's Le Monde seems to portray the event, though I can only read the Google translation:

Radioactivity on a record fish caught near Fukushima

Fish, close rockfish was caught in the bay near the central Fukukshima Daiichi...

Le Monde's article was sited at Zero Hedge also, calling the fish "Mike the Murasoi".

As I posted, the bottom-dwelling fish was caught right inside the harbor for the nuclear power plant, not near the plant or not near Fukushima:

TEPCO plans to close off the harbor mouth with a net.
