Townsquare Owensboro focuses on all things local. In the past ten years, the city of Owensboro has grown in the areas of arts and entertainment and general city and community development, while also maintaining its heritage and culture. Owensboro has honored its past but is not afraid to grow into our future. Because of Owensboro's thriving culture, the heritage WBKR/WOMI team is never at a loss to find something local to cover. In fact, we strive to make sure our websites (particularly WBKR) are home to exclusive local/regional news and features. On a weekly basis, we take local and personal stories and make them public stories of interest on a regional scale. We truly aim to create and share stories that are great enough to go "viral" - not on a national scale, but on a local one.
