Chuck Knight: Free Agent
• One of the industry’s most experienced programming pros is now available for his next broadcasting opportunity — Chuck Knight exited as PD of Entercom AC WBEB (B101.1)/Philadelphia on December 17 after an 11-year run as his position was eliminated. We understand that Entercom Philadelphia VP of Music Programming Shelly Easton will annex WBEB programming responsibilities.
In a statement, Knight said, “It has been an honor and privilege to program WBEB, the greatest radio station in America, for the past eleven years. Thanks to Jerry Lee, Blaise Howard, Jim Loftus and every single person on the WBEB team, past and present. It is successful because of all of them. I know that WBEB is in the best hands with David Field, David Yadgaroff, Pat Paxton and Entercom committed to the research and marketing pillars that have made the station a legend within the radio industry for decades. Great things are ahead for WBEB.”
Knight’s radio resume includes programming, operations and on-air stops at Saga AC WSNY (Sunny 95)/Columbus, OH, AMFM Hot AC WYXR/Philadelphia, Emmis Hot AC WENS/Indianapolis, Saga Top 40 KRNQ/Des Moines, IA and Ingstadt Broadcasting Top 40 WLXR/La Crosse, WI.
