In honor of Robert Redford, I'm watching 'All the President's Men' again | Collington Index
In 2012, Tulsa was lucky to land an evening with Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, 40 years after they broke the Watergate story that cost Richard Nixon the presidency. Before the reporting legends talked at a packed event at the University of Tulsa, they came by the newsroom to meet with the staff and take questions. It was surreal. They outlined, from their reporting, what was really going on that you might not remember.

5 ways the Tulsa World isn't like Peacock's new show 'The Paper' | Collington Index
Just to be clear, I wanted to point out some major differences between the Tulsa World and the Toledo Truth Teller, the fictional newspaper featured in the show.

Remote work at state agencies ongoing
More than 8,500 state employees are working remotely at least some of the time, with the arrangement mostly from a lack of space at agencies.

The Oklahoma Corporation Commission and the Department of Environmental Quality went in opposite directions on remote work in the second-quarter report.

Bill Braun was a legend who was generous
Bill Braun once overheard me talking about my upcoming story about a prominent person in town. The next morning was a paper copy of a lawsuit from years ago involving that person.

A newly proposed two-year time limit on rental assistance from the federal government puts 32,300 Oklahomans, 18,400 of whom are children, at risk of eviction and homelessness.

However, housing experts in Oklahoma claim the proposed timeline does not adequately address the housing crisis.
