About
Dyer Oxley joined KUOW as a web editor in 2020, handling day-to-day upkeep of the station’s website while providing editorial oversight. He also helms KUOW’s daily newsletter.
A newspaper reporter at heart, Dyer came to KUOW via various Seattle-area media — spanning talk radio, podcasts, and TV — where he covered the emerging opioid epidemic, transportation, local government, and the region's pop culture community (he argues the Northwest is one of the nerdiest places on the planet). You can count on him to keep up on the region’s many comic cons, science, and entertainment news.

Extremist groups 'popping up left and right' in NW, law enforcement officials say
While extremism recently pushed through the U.S. Capitol Building and into headlines, its roots run deep, weaving through the foundations of unrelated groups and ideologies that go back decades.
