Big D Adds A P:
iHeartMedia KWNR/Las Vegas MD/afternooner Wayne "Big D" Danielson has been named PD, filling a vacancy created with JoJo Turnbeaugh's departure for Denver last year (Breaking News 6/15/17). He reports to RSVP Tony Matteo. "Big D has been a part of the fabric of the Bull brand in Vegas in many roles over the years and we’re excited that he’ll now be leading the station as Program Director," Matteo says. "No one knows this station, this city and this audience better than Big D." Danielson joined the cluster at Top 40 KPLV in 2016, joining KWNR later that year.
"I’ve been very lucky to be surrounded by some of the most talented people in this business and I’ve tried to take a piece of their knowledge with me on my journey," Danielson says. "I look forward to this new challenge while continuing to serve this powerful team and amazing community."
