Lance McKnight

Lance McKnight, often known by other characters as Mr. McKnight, is an executive who owns WHAR, the only television station in Harvest. The station broadcasts Range Ryder's Cowboy Roundup.

History
McKnight founded the TV station and signed up co-ownership with Sheriff Dwayne (despite his statement to Steve that he "runs the whole show solo"). The only competition at the time was the Sentinel Newspaper, which ended after it was burned down by Postmaster Boyle. After this, the profits of WHAR rose up, benefiting both McKnight and Dwayne.

In-Game
Steve meets McKnight while he works at his office in WHAR. After WHAR is burned down by Postmaster Boyle, McKnight's fate is unknown. The player can uncover the blackmailing plot, which may involve killing McKnight to get to his safe.
