Oklahoma News Report
March 16th, 2012
A mystery from the deep it was a sight no one had seen before, thousands of huge dead catfish dead along red river. What caused it is still unknown. Oklahoma drivers can expect to see a lot more construction zones ahead as state highway bridges get replaced or receive long overdue repairs. One Oklahoma city shows how the state can turn around its ailing national health ranking. The remains of an ancient culture that rank with the treasures of the Egyptian pharaohs are found along Oklahoma's Highway 9. An equal pay advocate discusses how she took on the Supreme Court...and won. Those stories and more, on ONR.

Oklahoma News Report
March 9th, 2012
Cuts to Oklahoma military bases have cost more than a thousand positions so far, but much bigger cutbacks are still possible if congress fails to act. As the nation marks "sunshine week", advocates of open government step up efforts to increase transparency at the state capitol. Oklahoma is losing its fight against addiction, as the scourge of substance abuse, legal and illegal, continues to grip large segments of our population. A crusader for gender equity in the workplace talks about her fight for equal pay. And we look at how design, art, and risk-taking combine to drive the passion of one Oklahoman entrepreneur. All of that and more, next on ONR.

Sunshine Week
Featured in Top Stories
Open government supporters have long maintained that the Oklahoma legislature is one of the least "open" public bodies in the nation. But that may be changing. As the nation marks "sunshine week" march 11 through the 17th, legislation to make state government more transparent and accessible to the public appears to be gaining momentum.

Military Spending Cuts

The impact of federal budget cuts to reduce the national debt is now being felt at Oklahoma military bases. Hundreds of military jobs are being consolidated with operations elsewhere as the Defense Department begins meeting the goal of cutting $480-billion in spending over the next 10 years. Still looming ahead however, is a possible military spending cut that Air Force officials warn would have a much larger effect on the nation and Oklahoma.

Newsmaker Interview Dr. Trita Parsi
Featured in Top Stories
While the economy is considered the top issue in the presidential campaign this year, another big concern is looming: Iran. The U.S. has imposed economic sanctions on Iran to hurt that country's economy in an effort to prevent it from developing nuclear weapons. Fear over instability in the region has pushed oil prices higher in recent weeks, but there is also the concern of war. Dr. Trita Parsi is an expert on U.S.-Iranian relations and author of a new book on U.S. diplomacy with Iran, called "a single roll of the dice." Dr. Parsi gave a lecture on the topic at Oklahoma City University this week.

ONR Extra Election Polling
Featured in ONR Extras
Oklahoma's presidential preference primary election is on March 6th, Super Tuesday. Forty-three delegates are at stake in the republican primary, and recent polling by Sooner Poll puts former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum far in front of Newt Gingrich, with Mitt Romney in third and Ron Paul a distant fourth. The poll also showed that Santorum has the highest favorability, but is rated even with Romney as the candidate most favored in the general election. Sooner Poll brought together three political experts to discuss the latest poll results, and here's some of their analysis in this ONR Extra.

Health Care Exchange Bill
Featured in Top Stories
Legislation to create an Oklahoma health care exchange is on its way to the full senate. Senate Bill 1629 only partially complies with the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, and intentionally violates the federal requirement that individuals who purchase health insurance be allowed to access federal subsidies through the exchange. Supporters of the bill believe it is necessary to prevent the federal government from setting up an exchange in Oklahoma. But it's a matter that ultimately will be decided by the U.S. Supreme Court.
