   Found a source. ^_^   
      
   Warriors of Legend: Reflections of Japan in Sailor Moon (Unauthorized)   
   by Jay Navok and Sushil K. Rukdranath pages 142 & 143   
      
   Now, I know I've said some rather uncomplimentary things with regard to   
   a few discrepencies in their telling of certain episodal scenes, but   
   that's usually only with regard to episode info being blurry rather than   
   their depictions of actual history, etc, and this particularl   
   information is footnoted.  The credited info is from Juuban Irregulers   
   "Sailr R no Himitsu" pages 95-96.   
      
   The information includes specific anecdotal details of a Ohwada Arata's   
     (radio host) daughter having to be taken to the hospital as she   
   suffered shock from seeing the senshi die.  Other incidents are   
   mentioned as well.   
      
   Anyway, just an FYI since I finished up Warriors of Legend this evening,   
   and this was pretty much the last thing they wrote about.
