I think the Agency is dropping LSD on the coffee that he drinks before his TV show.
This news has been all over South America, in the form of email and chain letters, it was published also on a state-run (news agency, I belive) Venezuelan web site, quoting a "russian intelligence report".
What's ludicrous is that it mentions "project HAARP" as the origin of this "weapon" capable of creating quakes.
Well, Project Haarp does exist but it deals with studying the ionosphere and aurora borealis aka Northern Lights.

In short: this news bit, whoever originated it, looks like what we call down here "rotten fish" ... something created and diseminated with the purpose of discrediting whoever repeats or broadcasts it.
