Washington State Covered In News

• Townsquare Media Inc. has launched the Washington State News Network (WSNN), described as “the only source of local, regional, and statewide news that is available to broadcasters and listeners in the State of Washington.”

Here’s how it works — eight 90-second reports will air each weekday on select Townsquare Washington radio stations, including KONA-AM 610 and KFLD-AM 870/Tri-Cities, KIT-AM 1280/Yakima, and KPQ-AM 560/Wenatchee, along with third party affiliates throughout Washington State. Breaking news stories will also be available online and on Facebook.

“We are thrilled to bring quality local, regional and statewide news to the many communities in Washington State that are starving for more local information in their communities,” said Kevin O’Rorke, VP of News & Ag Networks, Western Region for Townsquare Media. “Many broadcasters were forced to cut news staff and content during the pandemic and we couldn’t be more excited to fill that void for both broadcasters in need of the service and listeners wanting the latest breaking news.”
