Editorial: Liberal media tells only one side

Tulsa Beacon

Journalism departments in colleges and universities used to teach that news coverage should include both sides of a story and professional journalists were supposed to hold to that standard of fairness. That is rapidly changing. Reporters from some major liberal news outlets are calling for an end to “both-siderism” and they specifically want harsher treatment…

Letter: Covid money for OSDE liberal causes

Tulsa Beacon

With unprecedented speed and seemingly an unending supply of COVID money, the Federal Department of Education (DOE) is feverishly handing out grants to the Oklahoma State Department of Education (OSDE). The OSDE received almost $1.5 billion in American Rescue Plan Elementary and Secondary Emergency Relief (ARP ESSER) funds in July. On Aug. 25, another $13.5…

Editorial: Hofmeister – a dishonest politician

Tulsa Beacon

Honesty is a precious commodity when it comes to political leaders. State School Superintendent Joy Hofmeister for years has been telling Oklahoma voters that she is a Republican. Now, as she decides to run for governor in 2022, she has finally revealed that she actually is a liberal Democrat. About 20 years ago, liberal Democrats…

Editorial: New York Times’ misinformation

Tulsa Beacon

The truth matters. But not so much at the New York Times. On October 7, the ultra-liberal newspaper was forced to run a giant correction after the paper ran a story about hospitalizations of children with the Chinese coronarvirus. The count was off by 800,000. “Science and health” reporter Apoorva Mandavilli initially reported that “nearly…

Editorial: Unvaccinated blamed for polling

Tulsa Beacon

Why are President Biden’s poll numbers so low (38%), the lowest in his entire term” Because vaccinations are not mandatory. What? That is essentially the answer that White House press secretary Jen Psaki gave on October 8 when asked about the plummeting poll numbers. Psaki said some of the blame for Biden’s unpopularity is on…

Letter: Corporate America is abandoning our basic freedoms

Tulsa Beacon

Corporate America is dying.  Business “leaders” in America’s larger companies, which have one hundred or more employees, have signed their own death warrants.  They are too stupid to even know it. Most no doubt are products of the failed public (government) schools.  They have bought the big lie of the Progressive Left, which is anything…

Editorial: Tulsa’s challenge from refugees

Tulsa Beacon

Tulsa and Oklahoma are about to get an influx of refugees from Afghanistan after President Biden withdrew from that nation. And thanks to Biden’s open border policy, the southern U.S. border is being overrun by illegal aliens from Central America, South America, Africa, the Middle East and even China. What should be the Christian response…

Editorial: VP Harris’ true view of Israel

Tulsa Beacon

Vice President Kamala Harris is no friend to Israel. In a recent speech at George Mason University, a student told Harris that Israel was committing “ethnic genocide” with the Palestinians and that Harris was promoting “democracy” but ignoring the protests against Israel for treatment of the Palestinians. “Your voice, your perspective, your experience, your truth…

Editorial: Coronavirus issues in Australia

Tulsa Beacon

Australia has gone crazy over the Chinese coronavirus pandemic. Much of that nation, Eastern Australia in particular, is locked down. In contrast, Western Australia is not locked down. That part of the country protected their borders and that plan worked as the pandemic was much less a problem in that region. Australia’s federal government is…
