The Wall Street Journal is taking the position that the danger is perhaps overstated regarding the release of radioactive gases in Fukushima.
The feeling is that even a total meltdown would be contained within the reactor vessel. The containment building is a secondary barrier.
The New York Times is reporting that #2 at Fukushima has a big hole in the containment building.
Overall, it remains a confusing situation as information is being interpreted in different ways and TEPCO is releasing information slowly.
