Corrupt in the sense they covered up accidents and cracked reactors.
Corrupt in the sense that they discovered CRACKS in the reactor containment vessel and chose to weld patch work patches of steel over the cracks instead of replacing the reactor vessel which costs a huge amount of money. Welding patches is never suggested by any company or regulatrs for a cracked reactor.
