Yet they said it wasn't as bad as Chernobyl, according to NHK World. (Btw, there was a 6.2 about 77 klicks from the studios, 10 klicks deep, during their live news and not one person said a thing) They said it wasn't as bad because the explosion didn't blow out the reactor and the integrity of the containment vessel wasn't totally compromised, or something similar.

So, if they said it's a 7 but isn't as bad as Chernobyl, why would they skip 6 and go straight to 7 from a 5? Just asking....
