Mazzei Minute: OK Newspapers

By Mike Mazzei

I guess it’s time to dump The Oklahoman Newspaper.  I have been reading it and the local Tulsa paper for three decades to stay abreast of news across the state.  The Oklahoman, under the ownership of the Gaylord family, used to be a reliable conservative-leaning newspaper.  Now part of the USA Today network, The Oklahoman has gone the way of radical left wokeism.

The day after 90,000 people packed a stadium to honor the life and Christian message of martyr Charlie Kirk, The Oklahoman headline read – “Kirk was a top conservative provocateur.”  How disappointing and disgusting.  Not once does the journalist, Zac Anderson, address the vile hatred and intolerance of Charlie’s murderer.  Rather, he paints Charlie’s ideas and comments as over-the-line, contentious dialogue.

Who Cares for Jimmy Kimmel?

By David Arnett

Editorial: I wish I could say that Jimmy Kimmel was a morally criminal, emotionally unstable, and cognitively incapable human, but I only know what little I have seen of him on television. I can assume his core from his minion-like goosestepping for Leftists, but my personal exposure has been limited from the analysis in 2017 that Jimmy Kimmel was inaccurate, not funny, and boring.

Fortunately, his show will not be carried, according to media reports, by Tulsa’s KTUL, a local ABC affiliate owned by Sinclair Broadcast Group. The station is admired for it’s accurate investigative local news coverage to which we can now add corporate good character and public courage.

Many people live in unreality based on what they intend to do, what they want to do, or said they were going to do. These things do not matter unless something is eventually done.

A Word on the 4th Estate (News Media)

By Loren Cosby

Just what the world has been clamoring for, my uber-lengthy take on the state of the Fourth Estate!

I was in local broadcast journalism 35 years. Started reading newspapers earlier, before the age of 10 because I threw them – morning and afternoon for a decade. Those are my bonafides, but one opinion is no more important than any other.

Remembering 9/11

By David Arnett

As evil tried to terrorize, America overcame and responded. To be a free people is to understand that evil is active in promoting fear. It’s minions hate freedom. To overcome evil, America must never allow evil to silence or to stop what our Declaration of Independence declares:

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, –That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
