The popular, premier statewide business and political newsmagazine can be seen on TV, heard on radio and podcasts, viewed online and through digital products, followed by email and through social media, and read through our multiple print products.
With bureaus and operations in Northwest Arkansas, Fort Smith, Jonesboro, Little Rock and Central Arkansas, Talk Business & Politics interviews business and political decision-makers who are shaping the Arkansas news landscape, reports on key industry trends and topics, and provides extensive political and capitol news coverage.
