It's going to be interesting how the press covers this years disasters, and use 2012 as their "scare-tactic".

Same old shit happens. Have the scientists thought it might a cosmic screw up or something along those lines when the earth gets to a certain point in its orbit something science-y happens.(yeah its late) / Magnetic field screwing up a sensitive bird?/ Shot in the dark anyway haha.

First sign of an apocalyptic year to come?

Japan has an earthquake any other year = tragic, but not shocking given its history of earthquakes.

Japan has an earthquake this year = OMG, END OF THE WORLD!

I reckon those birds were from niberu, fleeing from Apophis! Our alignment with the galactic core must have killed them

Is this what journalism is all about now?

These things happen all the time... But that EQ didn't hit Japan it hit of the southern coast and would technically be close to South Korea/China. Guess it's a better headline to post "Japan Earthquake OMG" lol

If you're gonna troll, troll well. It's meant to end on December 21st, not the 13th.

I am already tired of this end of the world bs... and it is only the 1st

Im not saying it was aliens
But it was Aliens

Dont tune in to Ancient aliens, on the history channel, they go around the point for hours

japan has CONSTANT earthquakes.
since i added an earthquake-notifying app to my droid, they've had 1-2 m4+ earthquakes per day.

I think Tokyo was on first line

Worry is that shit is going to the south, first place Japanese scientists are waiting for the big one... (Nobody was really waiting Sendai's one last year O_o)

Pretty sure it's what the daily fail has always been about.

Christchurch NZ has been having almost continuous quakes (some pretty major) since the really big one last year, but it's not been seen as newsworthy until now (Christmas/New Year). Lets see how many quakes on the 'ring of fire' are attributed to the world ending this year. lol

Not this again... Put your Jesus helmets and wait for it... haha kidding

too true- Americans, the Daily Mail is a joke to most normal people. blowing things out of proportion for shock/outrage factor is kind of their trademark.. so expect a load of bullshit when you see that url at the start of a news link. It's more entertainment than news

Snowfly

Not only Daily Mail, CNN is in on it too.

Mysterious Metal Balls from Space

Sighhghh journalism.

I guess that the one up side of internet articles like that is that there is always someone debunking it in the comments, pointing to the proper source material that the journalist should have investigated in the first place. I find it very valuable!
