What kind of news and programming does 96.5 KRMG cover?

Updated

96.5 KRMG (krmg.com) is a Tulsa-based radio station and news site that mixes local Tulsa and Oklahoma reporting with national and world news, plus on-demand podcasts of its own shows. It is most useful if you want Tulsa-area news — city and county government, schools, roads, and local business — alongside a broader wire-style news feed and the station's own programs.

Local news: Tulsa and Oklahoma focus

The site's local section is where the station's own reporting and community coverage sits. Examples from the homepage show the range:

  • Government and accountability — e.g., a petition drive needing 5,000 signatures to launch a grand jury investigation into the Tulsa County DA.
  • Schools and budgets — e.g., Tulsa parents speaking out on TPS (Tulsa Public Schools) budget cuts.
  • Infrastructure and traffic — e.g., a second new flyover ramp opening at I-44/Highway 75.
  • Local business — e.g., Webco Industries selecting Port Muskogee for an expansion.

If your interest is specifically Tulsa or northeast Oklahoma, this is the section to check first.

National, world, and politics coverage

Beyond local reporting, the site carries broader news, much of it credited to the Associated Press:

Section What it covers
Top Stories National headlines, e.g., White House messaging on "Trump Accounts" for kids
Politics Political and legal stories, e.g., lawsuits over taxpayer-funded ads
National News Domestic breaking news, e.g., an FBI announcement about a stopped Mall of America attack
World News International stories, e.g., Ukraine missile strike casualties, an Ebola case in Kenya, papal news

The mix means you can use the site as a general news source, but the distinguishing value is the local layer on top.

Programming and podcasts

KRMG's own shows are available as podcasts, so you can listen on demand rather than only live. The shows listed on the site are:

  • The KRMG Morning News with Skyler Cooper
  • The KRMG Afternoon News with Hill & Berg
  • Oklahoma Perspective
  • Wheels Car Care

The site frames this as: if you can't catch the shows live, the podcasts let you listen "whenever and wherever it's convenient."

Other things on the site

  • Weather — a "StormCenter Live Radar" feature is referenced on the homepage.
  • Events and contests — a Tulsa events listing (e.g., a Women in Business Mixer, an Honor Flight event) and contests such as ticket giveaways for concerts and Oktoberfest.

How to use it

  • For Tulsa/Oklahoma news, start with the Local News section.
  • For national and world headlines, use Top Stories, Politics, National News, and World News.
  • For station shows, go to the Podcasts section and pick the program by name.
  • For weather or local happenings, use the radar feature and the events/contests listings.

One caveat: the homepage shows a mix of dated items (several entries are dated October 2026), so treat any single headline as a snapshot rather than a live feed — check the section page for the current list.
