Tulsa’s News & Talk 102.3 FM has promoted long-time reporter Skyler Cooper to host. The Tulsa native will host KRMG Evening News which airs 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm weeknights.
“The KRMG Evening News has a great history of hosts informing and entertaining Tulsa’s radio audience on their drive home,” Station brand manager, Levi May. “Skyler’s the perfect local host to carry on this tradition.”
Cooper began his career with the Cox-owned station as a board operator and moved up through the ranks. During his nearly decade run with the station he has covered big stories ranging from tornadoes to the tragic shooting of two Tulsa police officers.
“I am beyond excited to take on this new challenge and I am looking forward to working with the ‘KRMG Evening News’ team,” Cooper said. “It’s such a thrill to work for the most powerful radio station in Oklahoma and it’s right here in my hometown!”
Cooper replaces Dick Loftin who served as the “KRMG Evening News” host for eight years.
