Are the Oklahoma Educational Television Authority (OETA) Fascists?
We all know the Oklahoma press corps needs a major enema! Here’s reason # 1,953:
From the State Sunshine & Open Records blog:
My friend and colleague Paul Jacob was indicted in Oklahoma in June 2007 by attorney general Drew Edmondson.
When the Citizens in Charge Foundation (CICF) sent out a press release to the Oklahoma media last week, announcing that the charges had been dropped, the Oklahoma Educational Television Authority — the public television station in Oklahoma — sent a “spam complaint” to Hostica, the company that hosts the CICF website, causing the website to temporarily be pulled.
I would think that getting press releases about Oklahoma-related news would be all in a day’s work for the Oklahoma Educational Television Authority, and would not be something to cause someone at OETA to go to the trouble of filing a spam complaint with CICF’s server. I’d be curious to know who made that decision, and why, and how it was executed. Read more…
Incredibly, this is not the first time OETA has reported Mr. Jacob’s emails as spam to their hosting provider!
But we’re OETA! How dare you question us and our loyal 62 viewers! If OETA doesn’t do it, who will!!??
(except 50 other networks)

Yes they are~ they suck hind tit at the National Liberal Public TV Conglomeration and left Oklahoma values behind a long long time ago. They took the capital expenditures of Oklahoma taxpayers and snuck off into a liberal protected enclave. Shut em down!

Fascists! what would you know about it? You are nothing more than the Republikkkans mouth piece of injustice and hypocrisy. Too bad you don’t watch what real news looks like. You dont want that because then you might have to think outside of your right-wing box.

Dude, you obviously know nothing about fascism. Fascism means that government decides who gets the means of production. In other words, OETA is the purest example of fascism, because the state gives them the bulk of what’s needed to function. You obviously have free market economics confused with fascism. Go read an encyclopedia, or at least a pocket dictionary, before spewing such garbage, please.

Ah, Oklahoma values?
Just what would they be?
Oklahoma began sliding into fascism 30 years ago.
Her Congressmen e.g. Inhoffe, Coburn are clearly fascists.
Poor Oklahoma. Is there any intelligent life left there?

I don’t know about fascists, but OETA is nothing but a left-wing shill machine. This comment was sent to Dick Pryor (his parents new one immediately and they are to be commended for their perceived accuracy at birth):
I just watched as much as I could stomach of William Gaddy by the host Dick Pryor, and Mr. Pryor was so blatantly dishonest in his questioning and commentary to be criminal. This was nothing but left wing propaganda.
For instance, there is absolutely not a shred of proof that any Congressman was spit upon or called racial epithets during their arrogant march, led by Nancy Pelosi, through the crowd after the signing of the new Health Care.
And if you declare me wrong Mr. Pryor, then why have you not provided proof of these charges so that Andrew Breitbart can make his $100,000 donation to the United Negro College Fund?
What an absolute sham, joke of a show, and you Mr. Pryor are a bald-faced liar.
