Changing Times, WKY As A Talk Station

During the mid-90's, OPUBCO turned over operation of WKY to Clear Channel Communications who operated the station through a local marketing agreement. Finally, in 2002, OPUBCO sold the station to Citadel Broadcasting after 74 years of ownership. WKY had been the last vestige of the once-vast Gaylord broadcasting empire.

From 2000-2002, WKY was a talk station. It flirted with sports talk, with two local sports talk shows in the drive time periods. "SuperTalk 930 WKY" was launched in March 2003. The format featured local-oriented talk shows throughout the day with some syndicated talk shows during the evening and weekend.

    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
