It’s some of both, in my opinion. Unreasoned fear of radiation is encouraged by media, just like every other unreasoned fear, because it gets attention.

It is then supposed to undergo multiple tests prescribed by CCP. The site (LANL) is supposed to provide documentation to support their exact…
I've always used it as a way of screwing with "common sense" perception.
