Wesley Knight is the production manager at KUNV-FM in the Hank Greenspun School of Journalism and Media Studies. He graduated from UNLV in 2017 and holds a B.A. in journalism & media studies. His responsibilities include recording, editing, producing, and publishing the weekend talk show and online podcast content for 91.5 FM Jazz & More and 91.5 The Rebel HD2.

Knight’s educational background focused on print journalism during his university career. He began in radio as an intern during his last semester, where he held the position of assistant music director, curating music content for the student station and reporting weekly to the North American College & Community radio chart. As a student, he contributed articles for UNLV’s The Scarlet & Gray newspaper. He most notably authored a piece on Nevada Public Radio’s attempted takeover of KUNV and its facilities, which played a pivotal role in keeping the station out of corporate hands with the e-publication Virtual Rebel. Knight lends his voice to campus underwriting and student podcasts and continues to act as a mentor and sounding board for students interested in audio production.

When not in his office recording on-air content and jamming to an eclectic mix of genres ranging from Japanese city pop to hardcore punk, he’s often keeping up with his first love of professional wrestling, educating himself on sociopolitical topics and music & media history, and growing his collection of vinyl records.
