Comments on: The Positive Press Continues… http://blog.newsok.com/okccentral/2009/01/23/the-positive-press-continues/ The Oklahoman's Steve Lackmeyer covers downtown OKC brick by brick.

USA Today and The New York Times, two papers that have run EXCEPTIONALLY positive stories on Oklahoma City and its Thunder in the past month, are distributed and read WORLDwide. What you can’t see from Steve’s link was that the USA Today story dominated the front page of the sports section, with two great pictures, one of Russell Westbrook and one of two fans enjoying the game. You literally cannot buy that type of placement.

After a rough start thanks to the acrimony surrounding the relocation, the Thunder is proving to be the PR bonanza for OKC that city leaders envisioned, and will continue to provide tremendous national and even international exposure for years to come.

This type of national press continues to change the perception of our City nationally.

I didn’t read any bitterness in that article. Are we sure it’s from the national press?
