With respect to an "earthquake machine" and to "advanced technologies" in general...
Under controlled conditions it is very easy to make the world respond the way you want it to. Most "exotic weapons" work just fine under ideal conditions. They may not work very well out in the wild.
About 100 years ago Tesla reported having some kind of working prototype of an earthquake machine, and its unintended effects rattled the neighbors and got coverage in the newspapers.
Of course there are working earthquake machines. Whether or not they're particularly useful as weapons of war is anyone's guess, but it's certainly very easy to make the ground shake using low-tech or high-tech means.
What we have in these simulations masquerading as news are idealized conditions. The media agree not to cover any aspects of the story that would reveal this to be a massive hoax. The players have had decades to choose the time and place for this event and to get all of the necessary pieces in place beforehand. The army is out making sure that unauthorized people have been evacuated and aren't waving cameras around to contradict the official story.
The "earthquake" side of this is just an engineering problem. The people who monitor earthquakes are at government-funded institutions and universities. If you've ever stood next to a seismograph, you know that you can simulate an earthquake by jumping up and down in the same room. With a cooperative military and industrial complex it is not a difficult problem to make the ground shake at a certain location by using military and industrial equipment.
Maybe the technology is not to the point that one guy sitting in a lab with $5000 of consumer electronics purchased from Radio Shack can cause an earthquake all by himself, but clearly technology has been advanced enough since Napoleon's time to make a simulated earthquake with the help of the Army, the Navy, the Airforce, the Media, and the Universities...
Creating a flood or making the ground rumble is pretty low-tech. The rest of this is just "social engineering" by using standard magician's tricks. I didn't feel any earthquake or see any tsunami myself, but the TV is showing me lots of pictures of "earthquakes and tsunamis" so I suppose that must be what's happening.
I haven't noticed any radioactive gas cloud over here. Have you guys seen any radioactive gas cloud over there?
If they want to make it look good, they can have a couple of pranksters release a small amount of radioactive gasses near some detectors in a few key locations and we'll all be reading about the radioactive gas clouds having blown across the ocean.
Every ski resort in town has had the ability to set off avalanches with acoustic weapons for the last 80+ years. How difficult could it possibly be to make a big wave flood some remote town that's already been evacuated?
Difficulty level: easy.
Waves are well-understood. Geology is well-understood. Electromagnetism has been extensively studied. The military has plenty of money and equipment. I'm not seeing how the earthquake part of this poses any major technical problems. Maybe all the real earthquake experts will scratch their heads and complain that it doesn't look like a real earthquake, but none of those people are going to get promoted or be interviewed on TV or in the New York Times. The confederates who authenticate the fake earthquake will get the Nobel Prizes and the accolades and the research funding they need. The scientists' know who's writing their paychecks, and it's not the conspiracy theorists out on the Internet.
Yes, Boss. Big earthquake. Looks real impressive. Floating houses on fire look nice too. Good one! And the meltdowns, very scary. Powerful stuff! Now... um, if you don't mind my asking, are you really going to run with Atlantis? I think it might be a little too soon...

FWIW, I think ewing2001's posts are interesting.
