Really? A lie based on what?
Yeah so finding some on the airplanes that isn’t normal, is something eh?
This should be removed from ‘Breaking News’ and re-categorized in ‘Broken News’.
I will let those of you with a better developed sense of humor write your own jokes.
I’m guessing at least half the people out there panic-buying iodide tablets have granite countertops in their kitchens....

Hmmm...
Was it “as much radition as one would receive from a trans-Pacific airline flight”?
I visited a nuclear facility years ago, on the way out my wristwatch set off a wand. That stuff they put on the numbers to glow in the dark has a minute amount of rad in it.
Today is the first day that it’s been reported, so it wasn’t happening in the last 5 days? Not abnormal amounts, not plutonium? Again we just don’t know.
In other news, White House Spokesman Jay Carney today stated that, in a stunning reversal, radiation is NOT harmful to human beings. In fact, it’s good for you.

OMG! We installed granite in our kitchen 3 years ago! We're going to die! Oh wait...right...I'm going to die anyway. I forget sometimes.
To help solve the problem of radiation coming to CONTUS, Barry will probably just issue an executive order that all "green" wind turbines face west.
Just curious, any indication of what the radiation level was as compared to the normal radiation levels commonly received on airliners flying at 35,000 feet or so?
And eat bananas and Brazil nuts.
Nope, not fishy. Just typical drive-by journolister product designed to stir emotions.
Get out of Texas as fast as possible!
A medical shipment going to Mexico....hmmm....
I will have to think about this one...
We were in NM visiting relatives, their local paper was in an uproar because radioactive material was detected in a garbage truck leaving Los Alamos.
After digging through the whole thing, they found... cat litter. Backtracking, they found a woman with a cat who’d had a radiation treatment who subsequently, as cats will, peed in its litter box, which she threw away normally.
Those are some sensitive sensors!
That used to kill watch makers. They'd use a very fine brush to paint the liquid on the numbers and tended to lick the brush to bring it to a point in between numbers. The stuff in there was radium.
