Human Factors
After being cleared for a visual approach to runway 14R at OMA; while on a wide left base leg; we were notified of air carrier traffic to follow. After searching for them and slowing (configuring for speed change) a visual descent maneuver was initiated toward the runway which was in sight since about 20 NM from the airport. The aircraft EGPWS alerted us 'Obstacle' 'Pull Up'; and a tower (1807 MSL) on the final approach course was immediately seen by both pilots and avoided by initiating a climb from around 2100 MSL to 2400 MSL. We were configured; on-speed; and stable by 1000 ft AGL; and a normal landing followed. There was no mention of anything out of the ordinary from ATC.
A CRJ-900 FO reported receiving an EGPWS alert  from a nearby tower while on a visual approach to Runway 14R at OMA.  They were outside the FAF and below the glideslope intercept altitude.
