About

Stories filed under the newsroom rather than an individual reporter.

The Oklahoma State Capital uses this byline for meeting coverage, public records, agency announcements and other reporting the paper stands behind as a whole rather than attributing to one person. The work is done by the paper's staff and the paper is answerable for it in the ordinary way: corrections, questions and complaints go to the newsroom.

It is a byline, not a person. Nobody named "OSC Staff Report" works here.

What our reporters do, and do not do

  • They identify themselves as reporting for The Oklahoma State Capital before they interview you, and they tell you what the story is about.
  • They do not pay for interviews, and they do not accept payment, gifts or hospitality in exchange for coverage.
  • They do not promise favourable coverage, and they cannot offer to keep you out of a story in return for anything.
  • They will agree to ground rules — on the record, on background, off the record — before you speak, not after, and this publication writes those terms down.
  • If you are the primary subject of a story, you are told before it runs and given a fair chance to answer.

If somebody claiming to write for this publication does otherwise, that is worth telling us about. Ring (405) 260-9966 and ask for an editor, or write to editor@oklahomastatecapital.com. Our full standards are set out in our creed.

This page is maintained by The Oklahoma State Capital and is the publication's own record of this person. It lives at https://www.oklahomastatecapital.com/author/osc-staff-report — an address on our own domain.
