Warner Bros. demands removal of Chickasha's iconic leg lamp
SUMMARY: Warner Bros. is demanding the removal of a 50-foot leg lamp in Chickasha, Oklahoma, claiming it infringes on their copyright from the movie “A Christmas Story.” The community views the lamp, which has stood since 2022 and boosted local tourism, as a landmark. The Chickasha Community Foundation sought legal advice before construction, believing they complied with trademark laws since the land belongs to a public university. After receiving a cease-and-desist letter from Warner Bros., the foundation’s attorneys communicated back but haven’t heard further. Community members are prepared to defend the lamp, which honors a late local art professor.

Terror plot targeting OU football stadium foiled
SUMMARY: A 20-year-old Oklahoma man, Landon Swinford, pleaded guilty to federal charges after plotting an ISIS-inspired terror attack on the University of Oklahoma football stadium. According to FBI documents, Swinford shared extremist views online, pledged allegiance to ISIS, and discussed potential attacks with an undercover agent. He scouted the OU stadium after visiting with his grandparents and later considered bombing a New Orleans voodoo temple during Mardi Gras. His plan unraveled when his mother discovered ISIS-related items. Authorities also linked him to child exploitation material. Swinford faces 25 to 45 years in prison for terrorism and child exploitation charges.
