Lilly Ledbetter 2
Featured in Top Stories
For nineteen years, Lilly Ledbetter worked at the Goodyear tire plant in Gadsden, Alabama. She rose to manager, received regular pay raises and earned a top performer award. Little did she know she was making 40% less than her male counterparts...until she received an anonymous note. That prompted a lawsuit and a ten year legal battle that culminated with a change in the law, giving women a better chance to receive equal pay for equal work. Lilly Ledbetter achieved a rare distinction: she fought back against the U.S. Supreme Court, and won, and saw the new law named in her honor. We recently spoke with Lilly Ledbetter about her battle for women's rights. Lilly Ledbetter’s story is detailed in her new memoir, "Grace and Grit: My Fight For Equal Pay and Fairness At Goodyear and Beyond."

While AIDS cases have declined in Oklahoma, more people are now being diagnosed with the virus that causes the disease. And a story of hope and "faith" in this week's Oklahoma Life.

Anthony Shadid Obit
Featured in Top Stories
Oklahoma has lost a son and journalism has lost one of its best. We learned on Thursday that New York Times foreign correspondent Anthony Shadid died while on assignment in Syria. The apparent cause of death was an asthma attack, at the age of 43. A native of Oklahoma City, Shadid twice won the Pulitzer Prize. He's nominated for another one this year. Shadid worked in dangerous, complicated regions - telling stories of human struggle on the ground in the Middle East, bringing detail and understanding to ambiguity. In 2005, we did a program with Anthony Shadid, following the U.S. invasion of Iraq and the release of his second book. We talked about his coverage of war and the Iraqi people. Anthony Shadid leaves behind a wife, two children and a large family in Oklahoma. Shadid's former colleague at the Boston Globe, Mike Barnicle, said this about him: "Anthony Shadid was a reporter. He didn't tweet. He didn't blog. He didn't sit at home and opinionate about things that he saw. He was in the field. He talked to real people. He reported on real situations; in places consumed by violence....Anthony Shadid was a giant."
