XTRA Hires Chet Forte
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.
