The MAPS projects were funded by a temporary one-cent sales tax increase that was proposed by the city, and the citizens voted to approve. The first MAPS project was so successful that the voters passed MAPS2, and now we're on MAPS3. A good article with a nice summary of events is here: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/mick-cornett/oklahoma-city-maps-economic-initiatives_b_1638228.html http://www.huffingtonpost.com/mick-cornett/oklahoma-city-map...

Might be time to start looking into more diverse news sources.

  I watched Fox News for an hour. Does that count? I probably won't do it again because after an hour I felt like hulk smashing the television. So who do you recommend?

    Just about anything other than TV news. TV news is designed to inflame, not inform. In the limited time they have, they can't help but be biased in some way.
