The Tulsa World had claimed that Bates was improperly linking to material on the Tulsa World web site.

 BatesLine: Whirled threatens BatesLine   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
The Tulsa World has been the only daily newspaper in town since September 30, 1992, when its publisher refused to renew its half-century-old Joint Operating Agreement with the Tulsa Tribune then bought the Tribune and shut it down.
For the first time, in Tulsa's March 2004 municipal elections, Tulsa's voters elected a bipartisan majority of councilors who were not endorsed by the newspaper, five councilors committed to reforming city government so that it serves the interests of all Tulsans, not just a favored few.
There are many cities like Tulsa, where a favored few seek to maximize their profits at the expense of everyone else; what makes Tulsa different is the World, which evidently would rather be a conspirator than a crusader.

On November 3, the Tulsa World reported that Sen. John Kerry was winning in 57 Oklahoma counties with 70% of the vote counted.
Why then did the Tulsa World report that Kerry was leading in 57 counties with 70% of the vote counted, and why then did Kerry actually lose in every one of those counties when the final vote was tallied?
"Apparently, the Tulsa World inadvertently added the straight party vote total to the numbers that they got from the State Election Board, who had already included the straight party vote totals in their figures, which inflated both candidates vote totals." In other words, the straight party votes were added in twice.

 INCITE: The Tulsa World is stinky
The people at Tulsa World seem to be radically opposed to bio-engineering technology which could alleviate starvation in the world.
I reach my conclusions about Tulsa World's bias because in the second paragraph, Tulsa World first gives the arguments of opponents of genetically modified crops (whom they cast in a positive light by labeling them "proponents of such legislation") before giving arguments of those who favor GM food (labeled with the negatively connoted word "critics").
Granted, those are extremely loose grounds on which to base a conclusion that Tulsa World wants poor children to starve to death, but I think you have to read between the lines to get at the article author's true thoughts.

But there were two papers, operating under one of those Joint Operating Agreements, and all was well with the world — or with the World, anyway, which shut down the JOA in 1992 and acquired monopoly status.
Editorially, the Tribune was farther right than the World, but the problem, from the World's point of view, wasn't the Tribune's politics: it was the fact that the Tribune was in a position to keep an eye on the Lorton family's wheelings and dealings, not all of which made it into their paper.
