KREM, CBS affiliate in Spokane, Washington
KREM is a CBS-affiliated television station based in Spokane, Washington, broadcasting on channel 2 to viewers across eastern Washington and northern Idaho. Its studios are located on South Regal Street, where it produces local news, weather, and sports programming alongside the CBS network feed.
The station went on air on October 29, 1954, starting as an affiliate of ABC and DuMont before switching to CBS in 1976. Since then it has passed through the hands of several media groups, including King Broadcasting, Belo, and Gannett, and is now owned by TEGNA Inc.
KREM serves as a daily source of local news for people across the Spokane area and eastern Washington. Its local weather and sports coverage are woven into the daily routines of many residents in the region.
The station can be received over the air, through cable, or via satellite across the Spokane area and much of eastern Washington and northern Idaho. For the most current local news and weather, the station also offers digital platforms where content is available at any time.
KREM runs a community food drive called Tom's Turkey Drive each year around Thanksgiving, which provided meals for roughly 11,000 people in a single season. This tradition is part of a broader pattern of local giving that also includes a Diaper Drive and a Tree of Sharing program during the winter holidays.
