My knee-jerk reaction was that this reporter didn't have a clue about abstracting... however... he may not be completely wrong.  Abstractors most certainly are a very important part of the process in every state, but not like they are in Oklahoma.  Abstractors play a very different role in Oklahoma than most other states and I can see why some would question the system they use.
