Main points:

·        United States is concerned about its nuclear reactors by the events in Japan

·        Radiation reaches highest rate yet near Japan nuclear plant.

·        Test suggests radioactive water is leaking into the sea.

·        More than 90 nuclear reactors are located in the east of U.S.

Bias detected:

·        Maria Korsnick, omitted that U.S. is the country with more nuclear reactors of the world, and a nuclear problem in US would occasion a huge disaster.

·        Maria Korsnick stated that U.S. is prepared to affront a nuclear disaster, but really we can’t affirm this, because the reaction of the people is unpredictable, so it’s just a point of view.

·        When Maria Korsnick says: “I feel very strongly we would pass regular tests”, that’s also a point of view: to be optimist.

·        The image showed in the video is also a bias.
