XTRA Hires Chet Forte

May 03, 1991

Chet Forte, former director of ABC's "Monday Night Football" who last year pleaded guilty to mail fraud and tax evasion, has been hired as a sports talk-show host for radio station XTRA (690) in San Diego. An announcement will be made today.

Forte, who blames a gambling habit for his legal problems, is still awaiting sentencing. A prison term is likely, but Forte is hoping for probation.

At XTRA, Forte will serve as co-host of a 1-to-4 p.m. talk show with Steve Hartman. Brad Cesnat, who was working with Hartman, is being reassigned.
