Thanks. The researchers doing this work did a good job. It’d be great if the next election could focus on the 45% of Oklahomans living paycheck-to-paycheck.

When a local newspaper loses its local ownership and is purchased by a Lee Enterprises media conglomerate, what happens? The news focus and content are controlled to maximize profits. And the journalistic standards are lowered to resemble a “Plainsville” narrative. Serious probing journalism is no longer required. And thus folks like Ginnie Graham are no longer needed.

Exam the journalism Ginnie provides in her blog. Compare it to how the Tulsa Wold covers a politician like Langford or Hern. They provide an outlet for their point of view but never exam Langford or Hern statements for accuracy. They never ask the second or third question. No journalist integrity in this arrangement.
