The network will combine content from Townsquare’s 610 KONA and 870 KFLD Kennewick/Richland/Pasco, 1280 KIT Yakima, and 560 KPQ Wenatchee while adding third party affiliates throughout the state.

Townsquare Media Inc. announced today that the Company has launched the Washington State News Network (“WSNN”). WSNN is the only source of local, regional, and statewide news that is available to broadcasters and listeners in the State of Washington. Short form news reports will broadcast on select Townsquare Washington radio stations, including KONA-AM 610 (Tri-Cities), KFLD-AM 870 (Tri-Cities), KIT-AM 1280 (Yakima), and KPQ-AM 560 (Wenatchee), as well as third party affiliates throughout Washington State. These short form news reports will come in the form of eight 90-second reports per day, Monday – Friday. Breaking news stories will also be available online at https://washingtonstatenews.net and on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/washingtonstatenewsnetwork.
“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. 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,” commented Kevin O’Rorke, Vice President of News & Ag Networks – Western Region for Townsquare Media.
