Why is That Man Not Wearing a Space Suit?
October 17, 2014
In one of John Stossel’s old ABC News documentaries entitled “Are We Scaring Ourselves to Death?” he showed film footage of an old consumer report he did back in the day on the chemical spills at Times Beach, Missouri and Love Canal, New York. The context of this was that Stossel was questioning the veracity of his own former consumer report by asking (paraphrasing): “Why are those EPA guys walking around in space suits while we reporters were just standing next to them in street clothes?” (Go to minute 17:30 in the video). Good question. There turned out to be no evidence of any bad health effects at either place.
I was reminded of this yesterday while viewing this video of CDC guys in space suits transporting an “ebola patient,” also in a space suit, while some guy in a suit and tie hovers around, hands them things, takes things from them, etc. Hmmmmm.
