    Good new for the future of the Oklahoma City National Memorial.

    Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum meets 9:03 fund goal of $15 million. | News OK

    The funds will be used for enhancements to the museum and for the memorial’s endowment. Museum officials hope new multimedia displays will better connect with and educate young people about the April 19, 1995, bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building.

    Would it be inappropriate for them to show the memorial on TV during the NBA playoffs? It seems like the memorial is a valid landmark that could be added to the rotation of places they show when going to a commercial break. I feel like they only places that get shown are Devon Tower, Bricktown, the Crystal Bridge, Skydance Bridge, and maybe a skyline shot or two. I didn't know if it would be disrespectful or somehow take away from the memorial by showing it in this context though.

    I think in the 2012 season when we went to the finals they showed several shots. Barkley and a few of the other TNT broadcasters took a tour of the Memorial and spoke emotionally about it.

    Tucked into the defense bill, a long-owed debt to the OKC Memorial & Museum.

Sill stands over a memorial chair while on a tour of the Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum during the "Soldiers‡ï Day Out" troop movement in Oklahoma City, Okla. on Monday, Dec. 21, 2020. The annual Oklahoma City tour and day on the town is held for military personnel not heading home for Christmas holiday. The event was hosted by the Edmond chapter of Blue Star Mothers of America.

    It’s just $1 million in a $740 billion bill.

    But it’s big, in principal and in principle, to the Oklahoma City National Memorial and Museum, which has been owed the $1 million from the federal government since George W. Bush was president.

    The authorization for the money was tucked in the annual defense bill, which was enacted on Friday when the Senate completed the override of President Donald Trump’s veto... FULL STORY: https://oklahoman.com/article/567952...tm_term=010221
